🔖 Feature description

As a user I'd like to have a continue button so that my agent can continue to run after it maxes out on loops.

✔️ Solution

Implementation of a button that allows users to resume an agent after it has stopped. Could play nicely with the addition of media controls.

Research direction
Explore the agent loop logic in the codebase, likely in the hooks or services that handle the agent's execution loop. Look for where the loop maxes out and how the agent's state is managed. The UI components for agent controls (e.g., start/stop) are in the frontend, possibly in the `components/agent` directory. Identify where to add a 'Continue' button and how to trigger a resume action via the API or state update. Check any existing linked PRs or discussions for context. The implementation should also consider media controls if they are present.
