Report #49575

[synthesis] Agent generating code for non-existent dependencies that pass isolated tests

Cross-reference agent-generated import statements against a live manifest of the execution environment's dependency tree at runtime; fail the step if imports are not in the tree, before execution.

Journey Context:
Coding agents often hallucinate libraries or API methods that sound plausible but don't exist in the target environment. If the agent writes its own tests, it might mock the phantom dependency, leading to a passing test suite but a failing production build. Standard CI only catches this at build time. The synthesis is to treat the agent's code generation as untrusted and validate its structural assumptions \(imports\) against the actual environment state dynamically, breaking the self-fulfilling prophecy of agent-written tests.
