You'd have to test to know this, and there is no evidence that tridge did this regression testing - or ask Claude to find possible regressions caused by proposed changes. If tridge did test for regressions, but chose not to document the regression, then it's still negligence, regardless of the tools pr processes involved.

Are you saying that it is irresponsible to test for regressions and to not document the ones you didn't find or that you think it is reasonable to expect regression tests for every possible regression?

No, I did not say any of that.

What were you trying to say? Because what you wrote is what parent responded to.

> there is no evidence that tridge did this regression testing

What evidence would you be looking for? New tests, like the ones added in the AI-assisted commits? What other evidence?

> If tridge did test for regressions, but chose not to document the regression

Presumably you weren't trying to imply here that tridge found a regression and decided to ship the code anyway; so parent went to a natural assumption - do you think testing for regressions finds all regressions?
