LoopStep

Execute Iteration Step

Security Level 1 (Enabled)

SindByte tool execution flow: voice command, AI parse, execute, validate, result

Description

Executes a single iteration step of a loop previously initialized with LoopStart. Updates the iterator and the variables and returns the current status. Called repeatedly until the loop is complete.

JSON Parameters

{
  "loopId": "calc_001",
  "operations": [
    {"var": "sum", "op": "add", "value": "i"},
    {"var": "square", "op": "set", "value": "i^2"}
  ]
}

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
`loopId`	String	Yes	The loop identifier from LoopStart
`operations`	Array	No	Operations for this iteration
`operations[].var`	String	Yes	Target variable
`operations[].op`	String	Yes	Operation: add, sub, mul, div, set
`operations[].value`	String/Number	Yes	Value or formula ("i" for the iterator)

Example Usage

API call:

POST /api/v1/tools/loopstep
Content-Type: application/json

{
  "loopId": "sum_calc",
  "operations": [
    {"var": "total", "op": "add", "value": "i"}
  ]
}

Examples

Simple sum step:

{
  "loopId": "sum_calc",
  "operations": [
    {"var": "total", "op": "add", "value": "i"}
  ]
}

Multiple operations:

{
  "loopId": "complex_calc",
  "operations": [
    {"var": "sum", "op": "add", "value": "i"},
    {"var": "sumSq", "op": "add", "value": "i^2"},
    {"var": "product", "op": "mul", "value": "i"}
  ]
}

Statistical calculation:

{
  "loopId": "stats_loop",
  "operations": [
    {"var": "count", "op": "add", "value": 1},
    {"var": "sumX", "op": "add", "value": "i"},
    {"var": "sumX2", "op": "add", "value": "i^2"}
  ]
}

Return Values

{
  "loopId": "calc_001",
  "status": "running",
  "current": 5,
  "remaining": 95,
  "variables": {
    "sum": 15,
    "square": 25
  },
  "completed": false,
  "success": true
}

Field	Type	Description
`loopId`	String	The loop identifier
`status`	String	Current status
`current`	Number	Current iterator value
`remaining`	Number	Remaining iterations
`variables`	Object	Current variable values
`completed`	Boolean	True if the loop is complete
`success`	Boolean	True if successful

Why This Tool Stands Out

Step-by-Step Control Control each iteration individually - debugging and monitoring in real time!
Multiple Operations Any number of calculations per step - complex updates in a single call!
Transparency Status and progress always visible - no more working in the dark!
Chainable Perfect for sequential workflows - each step builds on the previous one!

Perfect for:

Developers Algorithm debugging
Simulation Experts Step by step
Teachers Demonstrating iterative processes

Time Savings

No measured time-saving or performance figures are available here. Results depend on the task and environment.
