10 SDLC Checks AI Will Skip Unless You Make Them a Gate

Description and use

<blockquote> <p>Do you trust AI code? Of course you don't. Not fully.</p> </blockquote> <p>And here is the part that's easy to miss: it usually isn't <em>wrong</em>. It's incomplete. The code compiles, the happy path works, the demo is clean. What's missing is the boring 20%: the dependency nobody verified, the step that runs before its prerequisite, the rollback that exists on paper and doesn't actually undo anything.</p> <p>I learned this building agent systems, not by reading about them. I ran 170 agent goals and watched a planner repeat the same three planning defects predictably. I ran 83
