How does this MCP prevent infinite loops?

It uses a credit-based system where every retry costs a specific amount. Once the global budget is empty, the agent is denied permission to retry.

Can I set different costs for different errors?

Yes. You can define a cost mapping where a rate limit might cost more than a simple timeout.

Does this work with any AI client?

It works with any MCP-compatible client like Claude, Cursor, or Windsurf.

How do I see which agent is spending the most?

You use the get_session_status capability to see a breakdown of usage per agent.

How do I start a new budget cycle?

Use the reset_budget capability to clear all current usage and start fresh.

How does the budget enforcement work?

The system uses a credit-based model. You define a total_budget and a cost_map. When an agent encounters an error, check_and_deduct_retry checks if the remaining budget covers the cost of that specific error_type. If it does, the cost is deducted and the retry is permitted.

Can I track which agent is consuming the most credits?

Yes. The check_and_deduct_retry capability tracks expenditure per agent_id, and you can view the full breakdown using get_session_status.

What happens when the budget reaches zero?

Once the budget is exhausted, should_retry will return false, effectively blocking any further retry attempts until the budget is reset.

Works with modern AI clients that support MCP, including ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, and more.

Your AI does the work. We keep it safe and sound.

No other AI tool gives you this. Your workflow runs in the client you already love, your account stays protected, and you decide what the agent can and cannot do. It is the whole reason to make the switch.

Each Connector lives inside our infrastructure, the same place where your workflow runs. The three things below are already part of it, working quietly in the background so you never have to think about them. Nothing to add, nothing to set up, nothing to worry about.

V8 Isolate01

Each Connector runs inside its own sealed environment.

Each Connector runs inside its own sealed V8 runtime — no access to your files, your system, or other servers. A Connector never sees past its own request.

Kill Switch02

One switch stops every agent. Instantly.

One action deactivates every Connector, revokes every token, and ends every session at once. AI Governance keeps the record.

FinOps per User03

Spending limits that pause instead of surprise.

Every user keeps their own connections and credentials, isolated from everyone else. Anything that would cross your spending limit is held for your approval, not billed.

Three controls, built into the layer your AI connects through.

Capability set01 / 01

01-03

3 capabilities in this set.

Part of 3 available through Global Retry Budget Tracker.

01
Check and deduct retry
This capability determines if an agent is allowed to retry an operation based on the remaining budget and error costs. It deducts the specified cost from the global pool once a retry is approved.
02
Get session status
This capability provides a real-time snapshot of your current budget state. It shows remaining credits and how much each agent has used so far.
03
Reset budget
This capability clears all current tracking data. It resets the session to a fresh state with a full budget.

Real work

What teams actually run

Multi-Agent Orchestration

Prevent a group of agents from entering a feedback loop that exhausts your budget.

API Rate Limit Protection

Set a high cost for rate limit errors to force agents to slow down or stop.

Cost Monitoring

Track how much each agent in a long-running task is costing you in real time.

Resource Guardrails

Set a hard cap on total retries to ensure a task doesn't run forever.

One connector, every AI

Global Retry Budget Tracker works with the most popular AI clients.

These are the most popular clients, each with a step-by-step guide: one link, set up once, with governance and visibility built in. And because everything runs on the MCP standard, the same connection also works in any other compatible client — nothing to rebuild.

Building your own app? The connector is yours to use.

You don't need a client to put Global Retry Budget Tracker to work: the same hosted connection plugs into your own applications and agent code, with the same governance on every request. Build with it, chat with it — one connection for both.
