| ```release-note:change |
| agent: Errors in the template engine will no longer cause agent to exit unless |
| explicitly defined to do so. A new configuration parameter, |
| `exit_on_retry_failure`, within the new top-level stanza, `template_config`, can |
| be set to `true` in order to cause agent to exit. Note that for agent to exit if |
| `template.error_on_missing_key` is set to `true`, `exit_on_retry_failure` must |
| be also set to `true`. Otherwise, the template engine will log an error but then |
| restart its internal runner. |
