+# Agent Loop Documentation - OpenClaw
+
+## Overview
+
+The Agent Loop in OpenClaw represents a complete agent execution cycle, encompassing message intake through final reply persistence. An agentic loop is the full run of an agent: intake, context assembly, model inference, tool execution, streaming replies, and persistence.
+
+## Key Components
+
+**Entry Points:**
+The system accepts agent requests via Gateway RPC (`agent` and `agent.wait` commands) and CLI.
+
+**Execution Flow:**
+The process involves parameter validation, session resolution, metadata persistence, and model inference through the pi-agent-core runtime, which handles serialization and event streaming.
+
+**Queueing System:**
+Runs are serialized per-session to prevent concurrency issues. Runs are serialized per session key (session lane) and optionally through a global lane.
+
+## Extension Mechanisms
+
+OpenClaw provides two hook systems for customization:
+
+1. **Internal Gateway Hooks** - Event-driven scripts for commands and lifecycle events (bootstrap, commands)
+2. **Plugin Hooks** - Extension points including `before_agent_start`, `agent_end`, tool call interception, and message lifecycle events
+
+## Operational Details
+
+- **Timeout defaults:** 30 seconds for `agent.wait`; 600 seconds for agent runtime
+- **Streaming:** Assistant deltas and tool events are emitted as separate streams
+- **Reply handling:** Payloads are assembled from assistant text, tool summaries, and reasoning, with suppression of duplicate messaging tool outputs
