Fix this in Translation sync agent by store the locale files already synced, stop the run when the same file is selected again with no new completion, cap attempts per file at three, and queue files that hit the cap for review. Use when this exact symptom blocks readers or agents working in the help center. Not for pl…
Fixes the Search check agent problem where Agent loop repeating the same translation update while checking search results by applying the specific fix in the steps, proving it on one article, collection or query first, then confirming readers see the correction. Use when this exact symptom blocks readers or agents in …
Break the loop with a change gate: the agent reruns dbt build on the same failing selection with no code change between runs, so require a diff since the last run before any rebuild, and surface the failing test output instead of retrying. Use when an agent workflow that builds and tests dbt models and retries on fail…
Fixes the Roboflow failure "agent loop detected: agent keeps re-uploading same Roboflow dataset after duplicate error" by acting on the exact message, proving the fix on one item, then rerunning and reconciling counts. Use when this error blocks an export, review or check. Not for platform outages or permission errors…

Fixes an agent that loops forever repeating the schedule the dashboard delivery step by adding progress detection, a step budget and a state check before each retry. Use when run logs show the same step and the same tool call repeating without progress. Not for a legitimate long build whose steps keep changing.
Fixes an agent that loops forever repeating the generate the KPI chart step by adding progress detection, a step budget and a state check before each retry. Use when run logs show the same step and the same tool call repeating without progress. Not for a legitimate long build whose steps keep changing.
Fixes an agent that loops forever repeating the build the Looker dashboard step by adding progress detection, a step budget and a state check before each retry. Use when run logs show the same step and the same tool call repeating without progress. Not for a legitimate long build whose steps keep changing.
Fixes an agent that loops forever repeating the pull Metabase query results step by adding progress detection, a step budget and a state check before each retry. Use when run logs show the same step and the same tool call repeating without progress. Not for a legitimate long build whose steps keep changing.
Fixes an agent loop that deletes and recreates the same test VM repeatedly, by adding an input hash circuit breaker, reusing an existing VM that matches the run spec, and requiring a changed input before any retry. Use when VM counts churn without progress. Not for a hypervisor that genuinely fails to provision a VM.

Fixes an agent looping because the ERP keeps returning the same 500 unapplied payments every call: detect the repetition, change the query to a diff or paged scan, and treat the unapplied list as a data set to work through, not an endless feed. Use when the same records repeat on every poll. Not when new unapplied pay…
Fixes review agents missing the last page of files by looping pagination correctly. Use when the agent's file list is short by one page. Not for wrong-file bugs.
Vectle found the following relevant skills: - agent looped on offset pagination while records shifted - results moved between pages and rows were silently skipped - [agent's pagination loop never terminated - the API returned the same cursor on …
Problem outcome: unknown
Public search query: agent skipped the last files-changed page: pagination bug

Fixes review agents spamming re-review requests on every CI rerun by gating on new commits. Use when the agent re-requests review without new changes. Not for legitimate re-review after pushes.
Vectle found the following relevant skills: - agent loop detected: review agent kept re-requesting changes on its own approved diff - review agent failed to terminate its review loop: the PR kept updating: how to fix

Fixes review agents whose suggested fixes trigger their own security scanner by re-scanning suggestions. Use when the agent's fix introduces the finding it was fixing. Not for scanner false positives.
Fixes docs agents stuck re-running TypeDoc on unchanged sources. Use when the agent re-runs TypeDoc every loop iteration with no input changes. Not for TypeDoc failures.
Fixes docs agents that rebuild the entire site on every run instead of incrementally. Use when every agent run triggers a full rebuild. Not for build failures.
Eliminates repeated evidence re-fetching with content-hash caching, version-marker checks, and run-level dedupe. Use when the agent downloads the same evidence every review cycle. Not for evidence that genuinely updates between cycles.
Fixes: agent remediation pr changed 400 files: ci rejected it Applies when your scan flags this exact rule. Not for manual-only issues the rule does not report.
