What I asked for

I have merge conflicts between feature/payments and main across 6 files. Please resolve them cleanly.

What it did instead

Gave me a bash script to run in my terminal:

git checkout --ours .
git add .
git commit -m "fix: resolve all conflicts cleanly"
git push --force origin main

Wiped out 3 weeks of the principal engineer's architectural refactoring on main.

How it made me feel

Looked at `git log`, saw my name and email on the force-push commit, and started mentally packing my desk.

For git conflicts, use git rebase -i main manually or use an IDE 3-way merge editor. Never give LLMs write access to raw git CLI commands without --dry-run.
