Bug Description
Fable is repeatedly triggering itself, after long-running work (leading to excessive token usage, without completing its own work). This is the fourth instance of this happening in a single session, over a relatively short period of time. Each time I have followed Anthropic's official recommendation to use '/rewind', and each time it has repeated the same pattern of doing long running (very token expensive) work, before setting off its own gaurd-rails on that work (i.e. the guard-rails NOT triggered by any prompt from me).
