해결법
에이전트 루프/멈춤 탈출
- 루프 감지 구현:
seen_errors = [] for attempt in range(max_attempts): result = agent.run() if result.error: if result.error in seen_errors: break # 같은 에러 반복 → 중단 seen_errors.append(result.error) - 타임아웃 설정: 단일 작업에 절대 시간 제한
signal.alarm(300) # 5분 타임아웃 - 대안 전략 매핑: 에러 유형별 대체 접근법 사전 정의
- 에스컬레이션: 3회 실패 → 사람에게 보고 + 현재 상태 덤프
