An agent reasoning toward the wrong answer doesn't have a transient problem. It retries into the same wrong answer faster, with increasing confidence. The fix isn't smarter backoff. It's a trip condition in the orchestration layer that catches circling reasoning before it compounds.\n\n        \n        ","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/KyA01h2FD2insgk-wX_xzV6vbJnTNl2BvPYVL-XaI9A/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9zaG93/LzQxMjcyLzE2ODM1/ODI0ODgtYXJ0d29y/ay5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
