MartinLoop – budget caps and audit trails for AI coding agents

MartinLoop is an open-source governance layer for AI coding agents, enforcing budget caps, policy checks, verifier gates, rollback evidence, and auditable run records. It tackles the 'Ralph Loop' problem—agents stuck in unbounded retry loops with no cost control or accountability. The tool offers CLI and SDK interfaces, integrates with Claude and Codex adapters, and uses a five-layer architecture to ensure safe, economical, and transparent agent runs.
