LLM coding agents (Claude Code, Codex, etc.) have structural weaknesses: blind retry loops, volatile learning, silent spec drift, and gate gaming. These aren't bugs in specific models — they're properties of goal-optimizing systems.

  ANDON applies Toyota Production System principles to address this:

  - Jidoka (autonomation): auto-detect failures and block forward-progress commands (git push, deploy)
  - Kaizen (continuous improvement): force Five Whys root cause analysis, then standardize prevention rules
  - Meta-ANDON: detect when the agent is stuck in a whack-a-mole debugging loop

  Install: pip install andon-for-llm-agents

  Works with any agent that supports hooks/callbacks. Apache-2.0 licensed.
