Replace fragile cycle-modulo health posting guard with timestamp-based
approach and state-change-only posting. The inner monitoring loop no
longer posts health comments — posting is gated by a 10-minute timer
OR meaningful state changes (worker completion, dispatch events).
Approved proposal: #3385
Pattern: workflow_fix
Evidence: Agent posted 44 of 52 session comments in 20 minutes, all
identical, drowning out other agent signals.
Fix: Timestamp-based health posting with state-change triggers.
Approved proposal: #3385
Pattern: workflow_fix
Evidence: Agent posted 44 of 52 comments in 20 minutes, drowning out all
other agent signals. The cycle % 60 guard was ambiguous and ignored by the
model.
Fix: Replace fragile modulo guard with explicit timestamp-based rate
limiting (10-minute minimum between health posts). Add prominent CRITICAL
warning about rate limiting. Clarify that health posting runs in the outer
loop, not the inner monitoring loop.
