Reflexion Debug Loop
On each failed repro attempt, write a short reflection to disk, then retry with that memory — avoids repeating the same wrong fix.

Kickoff Prompt
Copy this prompt and run it with your agent to start the loop.
Start the "Reflexion Debug Loop" loop.
Goal: the failing test or repro passes
Max iterations: 8
Between iterations run: npm test -- --testNamePattern=<failing-test>
Exit when: the repro test exits 0
Step 1: Reproduce the bug. If it fails, append a reflection to .loops/reflexion.md before trying a new fix.
Self-pace this loop. After each iteration, run the check command, read the output, and only continue if the exit condition is not met. Stop when the exit condition passes or max iterations is reached. Give a short status update each pass.
