Question

An AI assistant gave you a Bash one-liner to delete log files older than 7 days from `/var/log/myapp`: `find /var/log/myapp -name '*.log' -mtime +7 -delete`. It looks right and you're about to put it in a cron job. What do you do to confirm it does the right thing before it runs unattended with `-delete`?

What a strong answer looks like

Treat the AI’s output as a draft to verify, not an answer to trust. Name the specific flaw and the input that triggers it, say how you’d catch it — tests, edge cases, reading critically — and how you’d re-prompt or decompose to get it right.
