agent loop detected re-enriching same leads after sync failure reset enriched flag

  • Related public instructions; check applicability and missing conditions.

Fix this in Enrichment agent by only clear the enriched flag after a confirmed successful sync, store a per lead attempt count with a cap of three, and send leads that hit the cap to a review queue instead of looping. Use when this exact error blocks an enrichment run, import or sync. Not for a platform outage notice or a completed run where only output quality is in dispute.

When it applies

Instructions

TL;DR

Fix this in Enrichment agent by acting on the exact message first: only clear the enriched flag after a confirmed successful sync, store a per lead attempt count with a cap of three, and send leads that hit the cap to a review queue instead of looping. Do not rerun the whole job unchanged, because the same inputs produce the same failure. Prove the fix on one record, then rerun the full scope and reconcile the counts.

Agent loop detected, re enriching the same leads after a sync failure reset the enriched flag

Use this when

  • The operation in Enrichment agent fails with this exact message: Agent loop detected, re enriching the same leads after a sync failure reset the enriched flag.
  • The same failure repeats on retry with unchanged inputs.
  • A run, import, export or alert is blocked until this item completes.

Not for this skill when

  • The message is a permission or platform outage notice. Resolve that first, then return here if this error remains.
  • The operation completes and you only disagree with its output. That is a quality review, not this failure.

Steps

  1. Reproduce the failure with the smallest scope that still shows it in Enrichment agent, and copy the full message plus the record, account or list involved into the run notes. Verify: the error is reproduced on demand with a named record, not only seen in a log.
  2. Apply the specific fix for this error: only clear the enriched flag after a confirmed successful sync, store a per lead attempt count with a cap of three, and send leads that hit the cap to a review queue instead of looping. Verify: one named record now completes end to end with the correct result and the original message does not appear.
  3. Check the neighbouring records that share the same source, mapping, workspace or settings, because this class of failure rarely affects only one record. Verify: the neighbouring records are listed and each is marked affected or clear.
  4. Compare the result counts, fields or alerts against the source in Enrichment agent so a silent partial success is caught before sign off. Verify: counts match the source or every difference is named and explained.
  5. Rerun the original operation in Enrichment agent on the previously failing scope, watching for the same message rather than assuming success from a quiet log. Verify: the operation completes and the original message does not appear.
  6. Record the fix, the triggering input and the verification result on the record so the next occurrence is recognised immediately. Verify: the record names the error, the fix applied and the evidence of success.

Why it happens

The failure path reset the flag that marks work done, so every retry selected the same leads again and the agent never moved past them.

How to fix this failure in Enrichment agent

The how to phrasing for the same failure. The steps above apply unchanged; start at the reproduction step rather than skipping to the rerun.

Troubleshooting this failure in Enrichment agent

The symptom first phrasing used when the console hides the full message. Surface the full message first, confirm it matches the code block above, then follow the steps.

Compatibility: Enrichment agent at current versions, plus the platform API or console the query names; no extra tooling beyond the source system access needed to verify counts.

agent loop detected: repeating the same meeting prep task to find stakeholder changes at a strategic account error...

  • Related public instructions; check applicability and missing conditions.

Fixes the failure behind "agent loop detected: repeating the same meeting prep task to find stakeholder changes at a strategic account error loop failure" by applying the specific fix for this exact error, proving it on one item first, then rerunning the full scope and reconciling the result. Use when this error blocks the work named in the title. Not for platform outages or permission errors, which must be resolved first.

When it applies

Instructions

TL;DR

Fix this in the meeting prep briefer by acting on the exact message first: fingerprint every attempt at the task, find stakeholder changes at a strategic account, from its inputs plus its last result, stop after two identical fingerprints, and change one thing before retrying, a different source, a narrower query or a human check, recording the repeated action in the run log so the loop is visible. Do not rerun the whole job unchanged, because the same inputs produce the same failure. Prove the fix on one item, then rerun the full scope and reconcile the counts.

Agent loop detected: repeating the same meeting prep task to find stakeholder changes at a strategic account error loop

Use this when

  • The operation in the meeting prep briefer fails with this exact message: Agent loop detected: repeating the same meeting prep task to find stakeholder changes at a strategic account error loop.
  • The same failure repeats on retry with unchanged inputs.
  • A call, review or send is blocked until this item completes.

Not for this skill when

  • The message is a permission or outage notice from the platform. Resolve that first, then return here if this error remains.
  • The operation completes and you only disagree with its output. That is a quality review, not this failure.

Steps

  1. Reproduce the failure with the smallest scope that still shows it in the meeting prep briefer, and copy the full message plus the account, contact, quote or meeting involved into the run notes. Verify: the error is reproduced on demand with a named item, not only seen in a log.
  2. Apply the specific fix for this error: fingerprint every attempt at the task, find stakeholder changes at a strategic account, from its inputs plus its last result, stop after two identical fingerprints, and change one thing before retrying, a different source, a narrower query or a human check, recording the repeated action in the run log so the loop is visible. Verify: the single test item now produces the correct result, checked against its source record.
  3. Check the neighbouring items that share the same template, integration, pricebook, source or account, because this class of failure rarely affects only one item. Verify: the neighbouring items are listed and each is marked affected or clear.
  4. Compare the result against the source system so a silent partial success is caught before sign off. Verify: counts and key values match the source or every difference is named and explained.
  5. Rerun the original operation in the meeting prep briefer on the previously failing scope, watching for the same message rather than assuming success from a quiet log. Verify: the operation completes and the original message does not appear.
  6. Record the fix, the triggering input and the verification result on the item so the next occurrence is recognised immediately. Verify: the record names the error, the fix applied and the evidence of success.

Why it happens

The agent retried find stakeholder changes at a strategic account with unchanged inputs after a result it did not recognise as success, so each attempt reproduced the same state and the loop detector tripped.
