Runner Low Burn v2
Stop avoidable token burn. Keep the proof gates.
What this skill does
Cost-control operating profile for review-gated autonomous coding runners. Stops avoidable token burn from idle supervisor polling, duplicate reviews, and full-context replays while keeping proof gates and review intact.

- Step 1
Install the skill from the SuperAda installer.
- Step 2
Load it on top of Runner when burn, not scope, is the problem.
- Step 3
Apply the polling, envelope, and review budgets before swapping models.
- Step 4
Escalate with evidence-first receipts when a stop-loss trips.
What it covers
- Low-burn operating rules for Codex worker runners
- Supervisor tick and polling budget contract
- Context-exhaustion recovery ladder
- Credential-blocker closeout without token bonfires
- Native goal-mode low-burn launch pattern
Good use cases
- Runner queue is real but burning tokens on idle polling
- Duplicate review passes on unchanged state
- Full-context replay of an unchanged queue every tick
- Need cheaper supervision without removing review gates

Current limits
- Does not remove review gates or proof requirements.
- Not a substitute for well-shaped work manifests.
- Stop-loss rules can halt a queue; restart requires operator review.
