Stop hook that keeps coding agents from stopping too early.

What it is

limpet is a Stop hook for coding agents. You write completion rules in plain language; every time the agent is about to stop, limpet checks the stop against those rules and sends the agent back to work if a rule is violated.

How it uses Jev

On each stop, limpet reads the last 3 messages, this turn's tool calls, and the final message, then asks jev one yes/no question per rule in parallel. Each rule gets a probability; rules over threshold cause exit 2 with one line on stderr, so the agent keeps working.

Primitives:choice

Technique worth stealing

Judge plain-language stop rules with one yes/no question per rule over recent messages and tool calls, tuning for recall.

Try it

Install via Claude Code or Codex plugin, or clone and add a Stop hook running python3 ~/limpet/limpet.py.

Evidence

Each line is one question put to Jev about the README. ≥ 0.60 reads as yes, ≤ 0.40 as no; in between Jev is not making a call.
