This server does not currently have a deployable release on Glama. Follow the repository's setup instructions to install and configure it for your MCP client, including any required credentials and local dependencies.
MCP server that detects and prevents infinite agent loops — the #1 reliability problem in agentic systems.
Provides circuit breakers, pattern detection, stuck-agent analysis, and recovery recommendations via the Model Context Protocol.

Register an agent for monitoring.
Param | Type | Default | Description |
| string | required | Unique agent identifier |
| number | 100 | Max iterations before forced stop |
| number | 0.3 | Min unique/total action ratio to be "making progress" |
Log an agent action for loop detection. Maintains a rolling window of the last 50 actions.
Param | Type | Default | Description |
| string | required | Agent identifier |
| string | required | Tool being called |
| object | required | Arguments passed |
| string |
| Brief result preview (max 200 chars) |
Returns early warnings when repeated patterns are detected.
Check if an agent is stuck in an infinite loop.
Param | Type | Description |
| string | Agent to check |
Returns:
is_stuck — boolean
confidence — 0.0 to 1.0
pattern — healthy, exact_repeat, low_diversity, or exact_repeat_and_low_diversity
suggestion — human-readable recovery advice
repeated_actions — list of repeated signatures with counts
Configure automatic intervention when action patterns repeat.
Param | Type | Default | Description |
| string | required | Agent identifier |
| number | 3 | Trigger after N identical actions |
| string |
|
|
Pre-flight check before executing a tool. Call this BEFORE the actual tool call.
Param | Type | Description |
| string | Agent identifier |
| string | Tool about to be called |
| object | Arguments about to be passed |
Returns proceed: false when the circuit breaker fires (block mode only).
Detailed analysis of why an agent is stuck.
Param | Type | Description |
| string | Agent to analyze |
Returns: action history, pattern analysis, token waste estimate, diversity ratio, top repeated patterns, and recovery recommendations.
Overview of all monitored agents. No parameters.
Returns all agents sorted by risk score with their status (STUCK/HEALTHY), action counts, and circuit breaker config.
URI | Description |
| All monitored agents with current status |
1. register_agent — at agent startup
2. Before each tool call:
a. check_circuit_breaker — should this action proceed?
b. Execute the tool
c. log_action — record what happened
3. Periodically:
- detect_loop — am I stuck?
- get_health_dashboard — how are all agents doing?
4. On stuck detection:
- get_stuck_report — what went wrong and how to recovernpm testMIT
This server cannot be deployed
Catch AI agent loops: halt runs that repeat the same failing step or tool call.
Stops runaway AI agent loops and token burn. Checks each tool call before it runs. No signup.
Recovery loop for agent tool catalogs: measured confusion, ranked fixes, signed recovery receipts.
Autonomous and governed SRE & MLOps control plane for AI agent platforms.
