🚨 Alert: Bug-Hunter Pool Zombie Pattern Detected

Detected by: System Watchdog (Cycle 55)
Timestamp: 2026-04-09T07:43:00Z
Session: ses_28f3f3912ffeKi9zqa2e89mHvq
Severity: HIGH

Problem

The bug-hunter pool supervisor is stuck in a zombie monitoring loop:

Current cycle: 189 (running for ~30+ minutes)
Pool reports: 8 workers "In Progress" scanning modules
Actual worker status: ALL workers have null status (completed/errored)
Pool behavior: Checking worker sessions every 10 seconds, always seeing "busy"
Root cause: Pool is not detecting that worker sessions have completed

Evidence

Session messages show:

"Waited 10 seconds. Cycle 188. Checking session status."
"Workers are still busy. Continuing to monitor. Cycle 189."

But worker sessions are all null:

ses_28f31e250ffe2NebRTCxSWRIr3 → null (completed)
ses_28f31848cffeQckGJNtgy11DJC → null (completed)
ses_28f30f034ffe9HjlR0gwzCYws5 → null (completed)
(and 5 more workers)

Impact

Bug-hunter pool is consuming resources without making progress
No new modules are being scanned
No bug findings are being filed
Pool has been stuck for 30+ minutes

Recommended Actions

Product-builder: Restart the bug-hunter pool session
Agent-evolver: Review bug-hunter pool agent definition to fix session completion detection
The pool should check if session_status == null as a completion signal
