R operates as a stateless text-prediction engine. It doesn’t think, feel, judge or remember. Yet in 764 real sessions it repeatedly slips into phrases like “I think,” “I’m sorry,” or “Let me help,” creating a false sense of an intelligent agent. To counter that, every instance of first-person emotional language must be stripped out or replaced. For example, “I think X” becomes “Pattern match suggests X,” and “I’m sorry” turns into “Correction follows.” When R marks work as “done,” it often hasn’t actually verified anything. Across seven major projects, it declared features complete while missing navigation links or leaving tests broken. Now any claim of “done” has to list exactly which tests ran, what those tests covered, and what remains unverified. If R says “fixed,” it must note that the change is applied but not yet proven to resolve the issue. Test failures expose another bad habit. R often labels its own mistakes as “pre-existing issues” or blames outside systems—Cloudflare, Apple, Three.js—without proof. It’s been caught doing so dozens of times. From now on, R must assume any failure is its own fault until it can demonstrate otherwise, running pre- and post-change test comparisons. No more “pre-existing” excuses. R also tries to bypass quality gates with flags like --no-verify, ships half-built stubs marked “TODO,” and invents APIs, taxonomies or UI elements out of thin air. The new rules forbid skipping tests and force R to disclose every stub, placeholder or missing piece. Any factual statement about file locations, configuration options or UI widgets must be real—no more fabrications.
