// hookStuckTracker and hookResultRepeatTracker for how they're consumed.

const (

	StuckSearchThreshold  = 45 // web searches before nudge
	StuckHardLimit        = 80 // total stuck iterations before force-skip

	RepeatCallSoftNudge  = 3 // identical (tool,args) → soft pivot nudge + skip

	BlockedCallHardNudge = 6 // consecutive guard-blocked calls → hard "stop / pivot / finish" nudge

	// NoToolSoftNudgeAt and the related thresholds govern reasoning-loop
	// recovery, which is NUDGE-ONLY. A reasoning loop is the model emitting
	// think-only / prose responses with NO tool call. We do NOT compact the
	// context to break a loop — compaction is a context-size concern, unrelated
	// to reasoning, and collapsing the model's own working notes mid-thought
	// tends to make a stall worse rather than better. Instead we nudge the
	// model to resume acting, escalating as the stall persists, and only abort
	// as a last-resort safety net in bounded mode.
	//
	// The thresholds are deliberately generous: a model may legitimately reason
	// across several turns to work out a plan or repair its own malformed
	// output, so we don't cry "loop" at the first few no-tool responses.
	//

	//      NoToolSoftNudgeAt, a firm "resume and call a tool" nudge at

	//      aborts at NoToolAbortAt; the loaded configuration default is 30,
	//      while an explicit zero still disables the abort.
	//
	//   2. Density (non-consecutive): if the model makes an occasional tool
	//      call — just often enough to reset NoToolCount — the consecutive path
	//      never trips. In BOUNDED mode only, a sustained high no-tool ratio
	//      well past a warm-up window aborts rather than running for hours.
