Infiltrator still rerouted/hangs after `Gate.stop`

If I manually execute Gate.stop(), infiltrator sessions still (try to) get rerouted through Kaimon. In practice, the session just hangs.

Relatedly: I have found no way to (manually) exit an infiltrator session (when the gate is active) without fully exiting the terminal. Is there a way to achieve this (without an agent doing it for me)

Screenshot of two julia sessions, comparing Infiltrator behavior on a session with stopped Gate, vs session where Kaimon was never activated in the first place

the left session just hangs indefinitely.

@haakon-e I haven't looked this case of manually stopping, it's a bit of an edge case and may just require a restart (could be done with by the agent via manage_repl.

Currently, I have using Kaimon in my startup.jl file, so all REPLs can be controlled by an agent; very convenient!

The underlying issue is that I would sometimes like to infiltrate myself. I found no way to do this with the Gate running, and tried to stop the gate to see if it then would work (but alas, no).

So, in my opinion, it's an edge case insofar as it doesn't "automatically" work when stopping the gate. But the real issue is that there's no way whatsoever for me to infiltrate in a kaimon-connected REPL, as far as I can tell.

Unfortunately restarting is not always practical. Some work may require long compute to get to the relevant infiltration point.

Fixed on 2.0-integration (just pushed) — three parts:

Hang after Gate.stop(). stop() now restores Infiltrator's normal start_prompt, and the gate's prompt override falls back to it whenever the gate isn't running. So after Gate.stop(), @infiltrate opens the normal interactive prompt instead of routing to the now-dead gate and hanging.
No way to exit a paused breakpoint. You can now press Ctrl-C to release a breakpoint locally instead of being stuck until an agent resumes it.

Debugging a gate-connected REPL yourself (without stopping the gate). New toggle:

Gate.infiltrator_routing(false)   # @infiltrate opens the normal interactive infil> prompt
# ... debug interactively ...
Gate.infiltrator_routing(true)    # hand @infiltrate back to the agent

Eval/tools keep working while routing is off, so you don't lose a long-running computation — no restart()/serve() needed.

This addresses your point about long compute making restarts impractical. Documented in the debugging guide. Thanks for the detailed report and screenshot, @haakon-e — ships in the next release.

wow! I'm thoroughly impressed and appreciative!

You addressed all my challenges and more, thank you so much for continuing making Kaimon such a pleasure to use
