RepoRails details its "Loop Engineering" tactic for debugging automated code checks that produce false positives. The post distinguishes between a genuine signal and a "broken instrument," using a grep check that incorrectly flagged a docstring as a case study for fine-tuning guardrails instead of disabling them.
