[synthesis] agent forces outdated plan steps causing merge conflicts or logical errors in dynamic codebases

Inject a state hash or file checksum verification step between agent planning and execution. If the environment checksum changes, force a plan recalculation.

Journey Context:
Agents typically separate planning from execution. In a fast-moving repo, a human might push a commit between the agent's plan step and its execution step. The agent blindly executes the stale plan, leading to overwrites. It doesn't fail immediately; it just creates subtle bugs. Synthesizing the ReAct planning framework with Git's object model reveals the missing instrumentation is tracking the delta between the environment state at plan-time vs. execution-time.
