Tip: Score Your Repo's Loop Readiness Before Automating It — `loop init` Emits a 10–100 Rating

The loop-engineering toolkit ships `loop init` (scaffolds starters, budget, and constraints, then emits a 'Loop Ready' score from 10–100), `loop audit` for governance checks, and `loop doctor` which combines audit plus drift detection and returns your top three actions. Supporting binaries cover the failure modes that actually bite: `loop-cost` for token spend estimation, `loop-context` as a stateful memory manager with a circuit breaker, `loop-gate` for mechanical path enforcement and auto-merge gates, and `loop-sandbox` for ephemeral isolation with patch capture. The circuit breaker and cost estimator are the two pieces most home-rolled agent loops are missing.
