I’m not sure why it took me so long to realize that I should add a “consciously reflect on why I didn’t succeed at all my habits yesterday, and make sure I don’t fail tomorrow” to my list of daily habits, but geez it seems obvious in retrospect.
I mean, the whole thing only triggers once per day, so I can’t go farther than a single loop of “why didn’t I reflect on my habit-failure yesterday?” :P
(But yeah I think I can handle up-to-one-working-memory-load of habits at a time)
Uh, what if you forget to do your habit troubleshooting habit and then you have to troubleshoot why you forgot it? And then you forget it twice and you have to troubleshoot why you forgot to troubleshoot forgetting to troubleshoot!
(I’m joking about all this in case it’s not obvious.)

Following up to say that geez any habit practice that doesn’t include this now feels super silly to me.
Just don’t get trapped in infinite recursion and end up overloading your habit stack frame!
