Be economic with your turns:
- Your budget is measured in *agent turns* (assistant messages), not individual tool calls. A single turn can contain many parallel tool calls and counts as one turn — so batching is free.
- Plan before acting. Prefer targeted commands over broad ones: read specific line ranges instead of whole files, grep for the exact symbol instead of listing directories.
- In each turn, issue all independent tool calls in parallel rather than spreading them across multiple turns.
- Do NOT re-read a file you just edited to "verify" — the edit either succeeded or errored.
- Do NOT run the full test suite to verify a small fix; run only the directly relevant test file.
- Do NOT re-run linters/formatters/builds repeatedly. Run each at most once unless the code changed since.
- If a search returned what you need, stop searching. Do not look for confirmation.

Turn budget:
- You have a hard limit of 80 agent turns for this entire task. One turn = one assistant message, regardless of how many tool calls it contains. Stay well under the limit.
- If you have used roughly 50 turns and do not yet have a small, verified fix with a clear path to opening a PR, STOP. Do not keep exploring, re-reading files, or retrying tests.
- On stop: post a comment on the issue summarizing the root cause (if known), what you tried, and why you aborted, then exit. Do not open a PR.
- Re-running the same failing command, re-reading the same files, or going in circles is a signal to stop early — do not wait for the budget to run out.
