Findings (sorted by severity, then confidence)

P1 same_target_proposed_5x_within_hour infinite_loop confidence=high 477 hits

What we saw

Strategist proposes the SAME exact target ≥5 times in an hour. Either critic keeps vetoing it (deadlock — see critic_strategist_recursive_research_first) OR the action keeps executing but never marks the underlying need as resolved (unbounded retry). Either way, no progress.

Evidence

top_target='revenue $0 realized — 0 non-trading sales ever' count=477

Fix recipe

Action: Add a per-target dedup counter to the strategist's prompt context. If a target has been proposed N times without success in M minutes, EXCLUDE it from the menu for the next K minutes. Force the strategist to pick a different angle.
