[synthesis] Implicit dependency blindness assuming syntactic success implies semantic precondition satisfaction

Mandate explicit read-after-write or pre-condition checks before each dependent step, validating semantic state not just absence of exceptions

Journey Context:
Agents assume file write success means file contains content. They proceed to step 2 without verifying step 1's semantic success. Explicit read-after-write validation catches silent write failures, network partitions, or partial commits that syntactic success masks.
