cancelloop

# Cancel Development Loop

Stops the agentic development loop gracefully. The loop will complete its current atomic operation before stopping.

## Usage

```bash
# Cancel the loop (archives state to history)
/bkff:cancelloop

# Pause the loop (can be resumed later)
/bkff:cancelloop --pause

# Pause with a reason
/bkff:cancelloop --pause --reason="Need to review approach"
```

## Behavior

### Cancel (Default)

- Stops the loop immediately after current operation
- Archives loop state to `.bkff/history/`
- Removes active loop state file
- Current task remains in `in_progress` status in beads

### Pause

- Sets loop status to `paused`
- Preserves all state for later resume
- Records pause reason if provided
- Can be resumed with `/bkff:startloop --resume`

## Output
