Ive found similar behaviour with stopping at linting errors. I wonder if my instructions are conflicting with the agent system prompt.

System prompts themselves have many contradictions. I remember hearing an Anthropic engineer (possibly Lex Fridman's interview with Amanda Askell) talking about using exaggerated language like "NEVER" just to steer Claude to rarely do something.
