Automated check

Also called: automated checks, CI check, type check, linter, lint, checks

A test or rule a computer runs to catch problems without a person looking, such as tests, type checkers and style checkers. For agents they are the fastest feedback: the agent runs them, sees what failed and fixes it before you ever review the work.

For example: Every time the agent edits the signup flow, an automated check confirms that a new user can still sign up.
