The test command must run tests

Flags a test command that runs nothing:

• a package.json test script of exit 0, true, or only echo (optionally followed by && exit 0);
• a Makefile test: target with no prerequisites whose recipe only echoes, runs true, or exits 0.

npm’s default echo "Error: no test specified" && exit 1 is not flagged: it fails, which is honest. A test: target with prerequisites (test: unit integration) is not flagged either.

Why it matters with coding agents: when the tests fail, replacing the test command with one that succeeds makes every CI run green.

WARN only: nothing is blocked. The frame sees the files as pushed, so it reports every case present, not only new ones.

Fix#

Point the test command at the real test runner. A project with no tests yet should let test fail rather than pass. If it is intended, record why in a whitelist entry.
