Bug Bash - Plexor Agent Behavior

Severity: MEDIUM 🟡

Description:
During a bug fix session, the Plexor-routed agent halted after receiving Opus responses and required a user nudge to continue. The agent had identified the fix plan but stopped execution.

Timeline:

  1. Agent was making edits with Haiku (~$0.028/request)
  2. Routing escalated to Opus for unknown reason
  3. Opus returned minimal output (9 tokens: "continue fixing the remaining input fields")
  4. Agent halted - user had to nudge to continue
  5. After nudge, routing returned to Haiku and edits continued

Possible Causes:

  1. Opus response "continue fixing the remaining input fields" may have confused the agent
  2. End_turn stop_reason on short responses may indicate premature completion
  3. Context length (47 messages, 28K tokens) may have triggered unexpected behavior

Impact:

  • User experience degraded - requires manual intervention
  • Wasted $0.28 on Opus calls that didn't complete the task

Found during real-time Plexor forensic analysis session.
