The failure mode is not that the docs are wrong on the day they are written. It is that nothing exercises them afterwards, so they stay plausible while becoming false — and the moment of discovery is someone following the instructions and finding they do not work.
This is why a worked example beats a documented one. A configuration block in a guide is a claim nobody runs. The same block, built and linted in CI, is a claim that fails the day it stops being true.
It applies to this record. These documents describe an assistant’s operating constitution; the machinery cannot check whether the description is faithful, and saying so is part of being honest about what the check covers. What it can check is internal: that every practice names a value, that every override resolves, that the views match their sources. Those are the parts a reader can rely on without taking anyone’s word.
