Yes, and agents are generating code that fails those checks regularly. I wouldn’t accept a junior engineer saying “oh I just submit my code and see if the tests pass, let me know if they’re failing and I’ll fix them”. Pre commit hooks are disable-able and LLMs have shown they’re more than willing to say “tests were failing before this change” when they weren’t, or to use python scripts to self escape their sandbox restrictions.
