Compounding
Most AI work resets every session. You re-explain context, re-derive decisions, re-discover what you already knew. The Loop keeps it.
Each stage feeds the next, and the end feeds the beginning. Intake feeds Thoughts; Thoughts feed Workstreams; Workstreams feed Creation; and Creation's output - code, content, crystallized workbenches - becomes new Intake. Within Thoughts, research and synthesis each build on what was previously captured, and synthesis can loop back for more research.
Because every pass builds on the last, the picture of what you know grows instead of resetting. That's compounding.
