Fractal by Plasma AI
Every leading harness can now fan work out to subagents and compose them into dynamic workflows (Claude Code, for example). Long-running recursive loops, though, are not yet first-class.Fractal is our take on recursive agent loops: a hierarchy of agents, each running its own loop, with a budget at every level. We use Fractal for some of our most complex work.Giant tasksBy giant tasks we mean work that outlives any single context window and branches into parts that can proceed independently: large refactors and migrations, features that span services, research and experiment campaigns.
