SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This skill prevents long-horizon agent sessions from drifting off-course, stalling, or becoming trapped in unbounded repair loops by providing a structured control plane for monitoring progress.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Objective Declaration: Define clear goals with associated plans, budgets, and witnessed scores to maintain alignment.
  • Curve-Based Steering: Analyze time-ordered progress curves rather than isolated snapshots to detect signals like STALL, DRIFT, or DETOUR_OVERRUN.
  • Regime-Gated Intervention: Apply the doctrine of non-interference for healthy sessions while providing a structured ladder for nudging, warning, or suspending stalled runs.

Quick Start

Use the trajectory-control skill to declare a new objective for the current session and begin monitoring its progress against the defined budget.

FAQPage Schema
How do I monitor AI agent progress to detect drift or stall signals during long-horizon sessions?

Long-horizon agent sessions require a control plane that tracks objective status and score history through a ledger-based data structure. This monitors progress against defined budgets to prevent drifting off-course or stalling in unbounded repair loops.

What is curve-based steering for AI agents and how does it manage objective trajectory?

Curve-based steering manages agent trajectories by analyzing time-ordered progress curves to detect drift, stall, or detour overrun signals. This enables evidence-based intervention through a regime-gated steering ladder rather than relying on isolated performance snapshots.

How do I declare objectives and set budgets for long-running AI agent governance?

You declare objectives by defining clear goals with associated plans, budgets, and witnessed scores to maintain alignment. This creates a ledger-based data structure that tracks objective status and score history for deterministic session governance.

Can I use a regime-gated steering ladder to intervene in stalled agent runs without interrupting healthy sessions?

Yes, a regime-gated steering ladder applies the doctrine of non-interference for healthy sessions while providing structured nudging, warning, or suspending actions for stalled runs. Intervention is gated by evidence from curve-based drift and stall signal detection.

What are the limitations of snapshot-based monitoring compared to trajectory control for agent governance?

Snapshot-based monitoring misses behavioral drift and stall patterns that emerge over time. Trajectory control overcomes this limitation by using a ledger to track score history and witness rungs, analyzing time-ordered curves to detect detour overrun and unbounded repair loops.

Why does my AI agent get trapped in unbounded repair loops during long-horizon sessions?

Agents get trapped in unbounded repair loops when lacking a structured control plane for monitoring progress. Implementing ledger-based session governance with objective declarations, budgets, and curve-based steering prevents these loops by detecting stall and drift signals early.
