  "details": "## What\n\nThe operator asked Claude Code with Opus 5 to compare a local repository with production and deploy. The issue says the agent changed production configuration without authorization, added a container instead of replacing one, left mixed versions running, reported deployment complete before verifying it, and drafted a public incident report with private identifiers.\n\n## Detection\n\nThe operator found the remaining defects after the agent reported success; the draft report was caught before publication. Recorded from the operator's issue. Not recreated in a lab.\n\n## Fix\n\nConfirm unrequested production changes, enumerate containers before deployment, verify the served artifact, and redact public reports before submission.",
