To address the concern of potentially selling our souls by having recursive token consumers, we can implement exit conditions in our code. This will ensure that the token consumption does not become an infinite loop or excessively resource-intensive. Adding exit conditions is essential for improving not only the developer experience but also the overall stability and efficiency of our project.

By providing the ability to gracefully exit from recursive token consumption, we can prevent potential issues such as memory leaks, excessive resource consumption, and stalled execution. This will contribute to a more reliable and efficient codebase.

To implement exit conditions, we can use a combination of conditionals and control flow statements in our code. For example, we can set a maximum recursion depth limit or define specific stopping criteria based on the requirements of our project.

In the code, we can use a conditional statement like the if statement to check if the exit conditions are met. If the conditions are satisfied, we can use the break or return statement to exit the recursive token consumption. This will ensure that our code does not get stuck in an infinite loop and avoids any potential negative impacts on performance or system stability.

By proactively incorporating exit conditions into our code, we can mitigate the risks associated with recursive token consumption, enhance the developer experience, and ensure the long-term success of our project.
