Two py/polynomial-redos sinks ran regexes with two adjacent \s-matching
quantifiers over untrusted model text, backtracking O(n^2) when the tail failed
on a whitespace flood:
- routes/skills_routes.py: the last-resort verdict-from-prose extractor used
`["\'\s:]*\s*` — the class already matches \s, so the trailing \s* was a
redundant second quantifier. Dropped it (extracted to a documented module
constant _VERDICT_PROSE_RE); the matched text is identical, the scan linear.
- src/agent_loop.py _EXPLICIT_CONTINUATION_RE: `\s*[.!?]*\s*$` put two \s*
around `[.!?]*`. Rewrote as `\s*(?:[.!?]+\s*)?$` — same accepted tails (no
two \s* adjacent), linear. Portable form (no possessive quantifiers).
Both verified output-equivalent to the originals across a fuzz corpus. Adds
tests/test_redos_verdict_continuation.py pinning the unchanged match sets and
bounding the flood inputs (old patterns took seconds at 40k whitespace chars).

Contributing
Help is welcome. The best entry points are fresh-install testing, provider setup bugs, mobile/editor polish, docs, and small focused refactors. See CONTRIBUTING.md and ROADMAP.md.
Security
Odysseus is a self-hosted workspace with powerful local tools. Keep auth enabled, keep private data out of Git, and do not expose raw model/service ports publicly. Deployment details are in the setup guide.
