OS-level safeguards layer for AI agent loops — runaway-kill, timeouts & resource limits so coding agents (Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Antigravity) in YOLO mode can't burn tokens or freeze your Mac
README
Safety net for running AI coding agents (Antigravity agy, Claude Code, Cursor, Codex) in YOLO mode on macOS without freezing the Mac.
TL;DR — On 2026-05-26 my Mac hit load average 307 because an AI agent kept booting iOS Simulators in a loop. This repo is the four-piece kit that stopped it: a wrapper, a LaunchAgent, a plist, and a 12-point health check. MIT, no telemetry, symlinks-only install. Full incident write-up:

If you only need the free Mac guard, install it below.
If you run agents for a team or clients and have a repeated failure that costs hours, tokens, deli
