built a kill switch for looping AI coding agents AI coding agents kept: retrying the same fixes failing the same tests burning tokens endlessly So I built Loop Watchdog. It sits between coding agents and OpenAI-compatible APIs and detects: repeated fix-break loops file churn retry spam repeating error patterns When the loop score gets too high: the next model call is b
