How can I disable auto-restart tasks in TeamCity after a failed build? I can't find this option anywhere.

I saw only one message in Overview section after auto-triggered build: "Re-added because of unexpected finish"

There is a parameter which can be specified on a project or build configuration level: teamcity.buildQueue.restartBuildAttempts

By default it's value is 3, so TeamCity makes 3 attempts to restart build in case of unexpected finish. You can set it to 0 to disable this behavior.

Update: Pavel Sher's answer shows how to disable this functionality.

Original answer:
Currently (as of TeamCity version 2017.2), it does not seem possible to disable this "feature".

I searched through the TeamCity documentation, support forum, and issue tracker, but I could not find any more information about this behavior.

I did create a new feature request for them to allow us to disable this functionality:
TW-53064 - Allow disabling of automatic re-queing after unexpected finish
