RunVeto – A Simple Kill Switch for Autonomous AI Agents
Agent cost killswitch solves a real pain, but monitoring infra is crowded.
Deterministic cost / loop / time budgets · full observability · crash-resumable runs · human-approval gates · a memory you own. Self-hosted. Your keys. No telemetry. Point it at your existing agents - one env var.
Deterministic Go governor halts runaway agents at budget with HTTP 402.

Agent cost killswitch solves a real pain, but monitoring infra is crowded.
NFA + ZDD pattern matching catches agent failure modes LangSmith and Guardrails AI miss.
One-line setup, real problem: $100 bill with zero visibility into what a Telegram agent was doing.
VERONICA puts an enforcement shim between your agent and the model so you can halt costly spirals before a request hits the provider — it natively exposes hard budget enforcement, circuit breakers, retry containment and degradation levels. The README + runnable runaway-loop demo make the failure mode concrete and the API (BudgetEnforcer, RuntimeContext, BudgetExceeded) is small and practical. I'd like to see richer observability/adapter docs for common agent frameworks, but as an enforcement-first primitive this is a clever, useful tool.
Provider-enforced caps mean rogue agents literally cannot exceed your budget.
