Report #62960

[synthesis] Inconsistent safety caveats and defensive code injection in security-related coding tasks

Strip model-generated safety comments from code outputs using AST parsing or regex before execution, and enforce security linting \(e.g., Bandit\) independently, as model-injected safety checks are inconsistent and untrustworthy.

Journey Context:
Relying on the model to 'be safe' results in a non-deterministic security posture. Claude adds unsolicited defensive checks that break automation, GPT-4o adds disclaimer comments that clutter code, and Llama does nothing. A deterministic pipeline requires stripping model-specific safety theater and applying standard static analysis.
