Catching Runs That Succeed at Doing Nothing

A run that crashes is easy to notice; a run that exits cleanly while producing empty, stale, or wrong output is a gray failure. This skill covers progress invariants, output sanity checks, and post-run assertions that turn a silent non-result into a loud, actionable one.

A Run That Exits Cleanly May Have Done Nothing

Catching Runs That Succeed at Doing Nothing

# Success Is an Output, Not an Exit Code A scheduled agent can finish, exit zero, report done, and still have produced nothing useful. The scrape returned an error page with a normal status, the source was empty, or the summariser worked from a stale input. Nothing raised, so nothing was noticed.
