通过提前预测失败并智能重启，显著减少软件工程代理的无效计算。

Software engineering (SWE) agents resolve repository-level issues through long trajectories that grow increasingly expensive as context accumulates. Failed runs tend to be longer and exhibit redundant exploration or looping, suggesting that some failures may be detectable before completion. Early termination, however, risks interrupting trajectories that would otherwise succeed; conversely, an unsuccessful trajectory may still contain useful repository edits. We present FailFast-RestartSmart, a two-stage controller for a single active trajectory. FailFast is a lightweight 0.6B monitor trained with terminal and dense fail-to-pass supervision to predict failure from observable prefixes without policy logits or hidden states. Upon an alarm, RestartSmart launches a fresh same-policy rollout without prior prompt history and offers the interrupted repository diff as an optional overlay that the agent may inspect, apply, or discard. On SWE-bench Verified, a monitor trained solely on Qwen3.6-27B trajectories transfers to three other policies, including a closed-API model, and saves 14.6%-20.4% of execution tokens at a target 5% false-positive rate; on Qwen3.6-27B, its 20.4% saving exceeds the 12.5% achieved by our per-step AgentStop adaptation. At a target 25% false-positive rate, RestartSmart raises Qwen3.6-27B resolution from 66.6% to 71.8%, whereas cold restart reaches only 66.8%. Together, these results support early termination with sequential same-policy recovery.
