Problem

Persistent goal continuation can incorrectly terminate when the assistant's final response explicitly says the objective is not complete, has remaining open items, or requires continued work.

Expected behavior

If a response contains an explicit incompletion signal, the goal runner should keep the goal active (subject to max-turn/budget limits) rather than marking the goal achieved.

Notes

This is separate from general judge quality: it covers the concrete case where the response itself says the task is unfinished.
