What
In the Workflow v2 tool surface, an agent that spends more tokens than its scope allows is now stopped rather than left running. The log line tells you how to raise the ceiling.
Details
Token spend is checked as the agent reports usage; on breach an over-budget fact is published carrying the label, the agent, the amount spent and the ceiling.
The agent's row is retracted at the same time.
Previously the only similar state was starved, which covers agents waiting on something rather than agents overspending.
No flag guards this; it applies wherever the Workflow v2 tools are in use.
Evidence
; put {topic:'budget', units:N} to raise the ceiling
Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
