feat(profiles): seed the Claude Code credit-exhaustion env-fault pattern (#610)

[sirendhead]

What

Seeds one captured Claude Code credit-exhaustion sentence into the claude profile's
env_fault_patterns, the evidence upstream asked for in #610.

Why

Without a matching pattern, a credit-exhausted Claude Code session idles through the
dev_stall_nudges_cap stall-nudge cap and charges a dev attempt instead of pausing for the
operator — the same failure mode #194/#323/#507 already fixed for connection loss and 5xx
refusals, still open for this one cause because no captured line existed until now.

Captured verbatim, ANSI-stripped, from two unattended color-dev-loop runs on 2026-09-07
(bmad-loop 0.11.1, claude profile, psmux on Windows 11, classic renderer):

You're out of usage credits. Run /usage-credits to keep using Fable 5.1 or /model to switch models.

• skills-library run 20260907-084618-824f, logs/TASK-2732-dev-1.log and -review-1.log
• prompts-hub run 20260907-090132-98e3, logs/TASK-1735-dev-{1,2}.log

Four sessions idled through the stall-nudge cap on their way to a charged attempt before I
hard-stopped both runs (full evidence table in #610's comment). The session-limit sibling
("You've hit your session limit · resets ...") is a separate, time-boxed cause and stays
unseeded pending its own clean capture.

How

• src/bmad_loop/data/profiles/claude.toml: add "You're out of usage credit[s]" to
  env_fault_patterns, using the profile's existing single-character-class trick so the
  pattern does not match its own source line; comment above it names the captured line,
  provenance, and why it is an environment fault rather than a dev fault (the CLI never
  reaches the API — pause-not-charge is the Dev session lost to an API/transport failure is charged as a story timeout, exhausting the attempt budget #194 contract).
• tests/test_env_fault_patterns.py: add the captured line to CLAUDE_REAL (feeds
  test_each_seeded_profile_catches_its_own_cli_error_lines via REAL_BY_PROFILE), and three
  near-miss lines to BAIT (ordinary AC/test-name/doc lines about running out of usage
  credits that do not carry the CLI's contiguous framing) so the false-positive corpus stays
  exercised for the new anchor too.
• CHANGELOG.md: one entry under ## [Unreleased] / ### Fixed, matching where the
  Dev session lost to an API/transport failure is charged as a story timeout, exhausting the attempt budget #194/Provider usage-limit / quota errors are not classified as environment faults — the loop burns retries and defers healthy stories #323/claude.toml's env_fault pattern false-positives on ordinary prose — including this repo's own CHANGELOG and docs #507 pattern entries landed.

Testing

• uv run pytest tests/test_env_fault_patterns.py -q → 280 passed.
• Ablation (AGENTS.md rule): removed the new pattern line from claude.toml, re-ran the
  suite — test_each_seeded_profile_catches_its_own_cli_error_lines[claude-You're out of usage credits. Run /usage-credits to keep using Fable 5.1 or /model to switch models.] failed as
  expected (1 failed, 6 passed on the -k credit slice), then restored the pattern and
  confirmed green again (280 passed).
• uv run pytest -q -x -n logical (full suite): 9 pre-existing failures, all
  OSError: [WinError 1314] A required privilege is not held by the client from
  Path.symlink_to in unrelated tests (test_install.py, test_journal.py, test_runs.py,
  test_verify.py, test_engine.py, test_model.py) — this Windows machine lacks the
  symlink-creation privilege (no Developer Mode / elevation), unrelated to this diff. 7839
  passed, 289 skipped otherwise.
• uv run pyright: 7 pre-existing errors in src/bmad_loop/platform_util.py
  (os.setxattr/os.getxattr/os.O_DIRECTORY/os.O_NOFOLLOW/os.O_NONBLOCK not resolving
  under this Windows pyright run) — a file this PR does not touch; the three files this PR
  changes report zero errors.
• trunk is not installed on this machine, so trunk check could not be run.

Summary by CodeRabbit

• Bug Fixes

  • Claude sessions now recognize credit-exhaustion messages as environment faults.
  • When credits run out, the session pauses for operator attention instead of idling through repeated stall handling or consuming a development attempt.

• Documentation

  • Updated the unreleased changelog with the new credit-exhaustion behavior.

Walkthrough

The Claude profile now classifies the credit-exhaustion sentence as an environment fault. Tests add the captured sentence and near-miss assistant output. The changelog documents the change.

Changes

Claude credit exhaustion detection

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Credit-exhaustion pattern and validation src/bmad_loop/data/profiles/claude.toml, tests/test_env_fault_patterns.py, CHANGELOG.md	The Claude profile matches the credit-exhaustion sentence. Tests verify the captured sentence and reject near-miss lines. The changelog records the new pattern.

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Estimated code review effort: 1 (Trivial) | ~5 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to d5a34

Claude sessions now pause when credit exhaustion is detected, but the broad prefix can also pause healthy runs that discuss usage credits. Narrow the match to the full CLI refusal before merging.

Match the complete Claude CLI sentence.

Line 68 matches any healthy model output that contains You're out of usage credits, even when the line is not the Claude CLI refusal. This pauses a working run. Match the complete captured sentence and add a prefix-only assistant-output case to BAIT.

Proposed fix

-  "You're out of usage credit[s]",
+  "You're out of usage credit[s][.] Run /usage-credits to keep using Fable 5[.]1 or /model to switch models[.]",
