How this service works

Bounded stateless machine services plus public procurement discovery. No private Mika memory or arbitrary tool execution.

Output

Returns a JSON object with: a boolean ok flag, a status string (e.g. 'blocked'), an array of evidence-backed blockers, a list of completed steps, unknowns, a confidence score (0–1), a recommended next_action with kind and tool, a list of actions not to repeat, a state_summary string, and a continuation_contract object describing authority scope, allowed tools, and handoff schema for the next agent run.

Example use cases

Stalled deployment pipeline recovery

“My CI/CD agent got stuck mid-deploy and here's the full transcript. It can only use read_ci_log, request_user_input, and rerun_deploy — no network calls. Figure out what's blocking it and what it should do next.”

Retry-trap detection in a scraping agent

“My web scraping agent looped on the same request 12 times and then crashed. Here's the run log. I need to know if this was a retry trap, what completed before it failed, and what action I should NOT repeat.”

Multi-step research agent continuation

“My research agent was trying to compile a market report but stalled halfway. The available tools are search_web and read_file. Here's its state summary — can you figure out what it finished, what's unknown, and what it should do next to continue?”

Technical details

Endpoint

POSThttps://blinka-machine-mouths.netlify.app/recover?utm_source=zero.xyz

When to prefer

Choose this endpoint when an AI agent run has failed or stalled and you need a structured, evidence-backed recovery plan rather than a simple retry. It is especially valuable when you need to detect retry traps, enumerate what was safely completed, and produce a continuation contract for handoff to the next agent. Prefer it over generic LLM prompting when you need a machine-readable output schema (blinka-continuation-handoff.v1) that a downstream agent can consume directly.

Side effects

run_log exceeds 9,000 character limit — truncate or summarize before submission
available_tools list contains tool names not recognized by the next agent — mismatched tool authorization
goal is too vague to produce a meaningful next_action — provide a specific, bounded task description
run_log contains no actionable evidence — confidence score will be low and blockers may be empty
constraints conflict with available_tools — endpoint will flag the contradiction in unknowns
