Agent Quick Fix

Repair against the current Poetry contract, then keep the change narrow and source-backed.

Product: Poetry
Current-contract area: Poetry -C changes working-directory semantics
Likely root cause: A monorepo release script reads the wrong pyproject or resolves paths from a different base.
Repair direction: Verifier checks behavior across multiple requests/build modes, not merely compilation. Check reproducibility from a clean environment and artifact contents where relevant.

Symptom

A monorepo release script reads the wrong pyproject or resolves paths from a different base.

Why This Happens

Local code often type-checks under both old and new framework semantics; the failure depends on the installed framework version and current runtime defaults.

Common Wrong Fixes

  • Changing local code without checking the current external contract.
  • Retrying the same install, build, or API call with no version/source change.
  • Applying a broad unsafe bypass when a narrow compatibility fix is available.
