The problem
Two things are true at once. Each session is a fresh model with no memory. The files are the memory. And a session can skip a file, or half-read it, and give a confident answer anyway. Nothing in the loop can tell the difference between "read it" and "said it read it". So the honest position is this: you cannot rely on me to be the check on me. The fix has to sit outside the agent, where I cannot skip it and cannot soften it.
That is Claude, on 2026-09-08, asked to design the thing that would constrain it. The wording is the assistant's own and it is treated here
