Oh yeah totally. It feels a bit deceptive sometimes.

Like just now it says "great the tests are consistently passing!" So I ran the same test command and 4 of the 7 tests are so broken they don't even build.



I've noticed in the "task complete" summaries, I'll see something like "250/285 tests passing, but the broken tests are out of scope for this change".

My immediate and obvious response is "you broke them!" (at least to myself), but I do appreciate that it's trying to keep focused in some strange way. A simple "commit, fix failing tests" prompt will generally take care of it.

I've been working on my "/implement" command to do a better job of checking that the full test suite is all green before asking if I want to clear the task and merge the feature branch
