Host-level process monitoring protects cloud budgets from runaway agent loops
Runaway agent loops can drain cloud budgets. Gate can hold a spend ceiling on the path you wrap. Phantom Engine can stop unauthorized work on Linux hosts you enroll.

One risk of deploying autonomous agents is the runaway loop — recursive or stuck agents that keep calling models and burning budget. Teams need a way to put a ceiling on spend and to hold the host when the wrap never sees the loop.
Where spend limits actually attach
When an agent breaks a goal into subtasks, a stuck retry can call model APIs over and over. Gate can hold a spend ceiling on the path you wrap. That does not cover a process that never loaded the wrap.
Application gateways that only count API volume also miss local loops and child processes that never hit that gateway.
What Phantom Engine can do on enrolled Linux
On Linux hosts you enroll, Phantom Engine can refuse unauthorized commands, files, and destinations — including work that a child process tries after the wrap is skipped. That is host protection on those machines, not automatic detection of every recursive thought in every runtime.
Optics still observes without storing chats. Gate still enforces spend on the wrapped path. Enterprise is the governance layer when you need evidence and dual-control on that same host protection.
