Lesson 6 of 8
For Loops
Concept
A
for loop repeats code for each item in a collection. The variable after for takes on each value one at a time. Your mesh uses this pattern everywhere — looping over agents, tasks, endpoints.

# Loop through idle tasks
idle_tasks = [
{"title": "Security scan", "cooldown_hours": 24},
{"title": "Health probe", "cooldown_hours": 2},
{"title": "Knowledge gardening", "cooldown_hours": 4},
]
for task in idle_tasks:
print(f"{task['title']}: every {task['cooldown_hours']}h")
# Output:
# Security scan: every 24h
# Health probe: every 2h
# Knowledge gardening: every 4hWhat's happening
Each time through the loop,
task becomes the next dict in the list. First iteration: task = the security scan dict. Second iteration: task = the health probe dict. And so on.
