Closes the self-improvement loop: when escape-pit + wedged-jump +
blind fallback all run 3× in a row without freeing the bot, fire a
dedicated proposal at the auto-improver. Pi gets the full context
(journal byKind, last 12 scenario-memory entries, current slim
snapshot) and is asked to either improve escapePit() (dig forward +
down + side, not only up) OR add a brand-new recovery.tunnel-out skill.
- runtime/stuck-incident.js: new checkWedged() path with separate
cooldown (10 min) from the no-progress path. noteResult() ingests
every dispatched action's detail.mode to count wedged completions.
- runtime/bot.js: dispatchAction calls stuckIncident.noteResult(res)
after each result; tick() calls checkWedged() and files the proposal
via writeProposal({editScope:[runtime/actions.js, runtime/skills/,
runtime/reflex.js]}).
This is the architectural piece: a bot wedged in a 1×1 hole now
generates a proposal that Pi can act on (with edit-scope guard rails
+ npm test smoke gate from PR #19), instead of looping wedged-jump
forever.
Verified live: bot now also picks direction from journal —
"explore.far: journal says leanest quadrant=NE → prefer N" — first
time the bot uses persistent memory to choose where to go next.
