The learning loop is the whole idea
Every interaction ASTRA has becomes a datapoint it can learn from. The loop never stops at inference — it records, reflects and improves, then takes the next task.
ASTRA
learning loop
one loop / exp.
01 · Perceive
Observe the task and its context.
02 · Reason
Form a plan and predict an outcome.
03 · Act
Execute the plan in the environment.
04 · Record
Store the interaction and its result.
05 · Reflect
Compare result to prediction. Reward or penalise.
06 · Improve
Update weights and policy. Loop returns to 01.
