Report #103861

[agent\_craft] Assumed a function signature or library API instead of checking it

Before calling internal functions or library methods, read the definition or official docs; use inspect.signature for Python; write a probe if still unsure.

Journey Context:
Confident guessing about APIs is a common failure mode. One wrong parameter causes a runtime error that takes longer to debug than reading the signature. For project code, Grep\+Read the definition. For dependencies, read installed source or canonical docs. Never trust memory for exact names or return shapes.
