The problem
Indie operators self-hosting agent harnesses (e.g., OpenClaw-like stacks) see scheduled tasks enter retry loops or expose unauthenticated HTTP endpoints and only notice after the provider invoice arrives. That one-night failure commonly costs $200-600 in unexpected API charges and 2-8 hours of triage per incident. Provider dashboards, reverse proxies, and basic uptime pingers all fail because they show service as "up" or report spend after the fact and do not provide per-workflow spend guards or loop kill switches.
