Runaway Agent Loop Detection Scenario
An agent enters a loop, repeatedly calling the same API endpoint and racking up costs. Sipi Bot detects the pattern (same endpoint + same parameters + excessive calls) and auto-throttles the agent.
The velocity cap kicks in: if an agent makes more than N calls per minute, subsequent calls are queued with exponential backoff. The human operator is alerted to investigate the loop.
How many calls trigger the velocity cap?
Default is 10 calls per minute per agent. Configurable per agent profile. The cap prevents silent runaway costs from loop bugs.
