Overview The circuit-breaker skill is a safety mechanism that prevents infinite loops, resource exhaustion, and accidental destruction during autonomous development. It operates at the loop level (complementing which operates at the task level ). Without circuit-breaker protection, autonomous loops can waste hours on stagnant problems, exhaust API limits, or accidentally destroy configuration files. This skill enforces hard boundaries that keep autonomous operations productive and safe. Announce at start: "Circuit breaker is active — monitoring for stagnation, rate limits, and file protection…
