v1.5.0 - Resource Exhaustion Monitoring

What's New

🛡️ Resource Exhaustion Monitoring

Detect and prevent runaway agents consuming excessive resources without producing meaningful deliverables.

• Per-Agent Tracking: Track files accessed, API calls, subtasks spawned, tokens consumed
• Phase Progression: normal → warning → intervention → termination
• Configurable Thresholds: Set limits for each resource type
• Pause/Resume Control: Automatically pause agents exceeding thresholds
• Deliverable Checkpoints: Reset time-based tracking when agents produce results
• Slack Notifications: Alert on warnings, interventions, and terminations
• Prometheus Metrics: Full observability with counters, gauges, histograms

🎯 Semantic Drift Detection

Detect when task descriptions are semantically similar to ancestors (from v1.5.0-beta).

• Embedding-based Similarity: Uses OpenAI or Ollama embeddings
• Configurable Thresholds: threshold (block/warn) and warningThreshold (warn only)
• Task Relationships: Track parent_of, derived_from, depends_on, supersedes
