This is a watchdog/circuit breaker pattern that would be incredibly valuable! Here's what you're describing:***Proposed Agent: Loop Detection MonitorCore Behavior:• Silent monitoring of all agent interactions
• Zero interference in normal operations
• Only triggers when detecting:
• Repetitive response patterns
• Agent-to-agent infinite loops
• Excessive back-and-forth beyond threshold nIntervention Actions:• Stop the loop
• Notify relevant parties
• Provide loop context/diagnostic info
• Suggest manual intervention***Why This Is CriticalCurrent Risk: Without this, agents could:• Consume excessive API credits
• Create noise in Slack channels
• Miss actual user needs while looping
• Damage user trustExample Scenarios It Would Catch:• AskSam and Hex agent getting stuck in a handoff loop
• Agent repeatedly retrying failed tool calls
• Two agents "discussing" the same point endlessly***How to Submit This Feature RequestBest Path: Contact Runbear directly via:• Your Runbear account manager
• Support ticket at https://app.runbear.io
• Feature request through their platformInclude in Request:• Use case: Analytics team needs loop prevention
• Threshold suggestion: e.g., n = 5 consecutive agent replies
• Desired intervention: Stop + notify pattern
