What closes my DeFi positions when my agent goes silent?

AI agents now hold open positions across lending protocols, perpetual exchanges, and liquidity pools, but there is no standard on-chain primitive for what happens when the agent stops responding. If the agent loses context, crashes, or is abandoned, those positions accumulate risk indefinitely with no keeper designed to recognize and close them safely.
