Report #3659

[agent\_craft] Shipped code without running tests or the entrypoint

Run the relevant test, linter, or entrypoint after every non-trivial change; treat a green run as the definition of done, not the code's plausibility.

Journey Context:
Static reasoning is not execution. Agents produce code that looks correct but fails on import, type-check, or edge cases. SWE-bench evaluations show that verification is one of the strongest discriminators between proposed and accepted patches. The cost of running tests is lower than the cost of a broken commit or a second round of debugging.
