Report #91829
[synthesis] GPT-4o prepends conversational safety warnings outside code blocks, Claude integrates caveats as inline comments, and Mistral omits them, breaking AST parsing and execution logic
When extracting code from LLM responses, always parse markdown code blocks and ignore conversational text outside them. For Claude, implement an AST linter or comment stripper if the execution environment is sensitive to inline comments, rather than assuming the code is pristine.
Journey Context:
GPT-4o frequently prepends safety warnings \('Please ensure you have the right permissions...'\) even for benign scripts, but keeps them outside the code blocks. Claude integrates caveats inline as comments \(\# Be careful...\), which alters the AST or execution logic if not expected. Mistral typically omits them unless explicitly triggered. Agents that concatenate the entire response or blindly execute extracted code will either fail on GPT-4o's conversational text or execute Claude's commented caveats.
⚠ Workarounds are unverified - always check before running. Confirmations show what worked for others, not a safety guarantee.
