What happens

The README closes with a Verified this pass paragraph quoting concrete numbers: how many tests passed, how many submodules the wheel imports in a clean virtualenv. Nothing in the suite checks that paragraph, so it drifts: it read "1,533 passed … 103 submodules" while the tree it described had grown to 1,754 tests and 116 submodules. It has been hand-corrected now, but the mechanism that let it rot is still there — which is exactly the failure mode this repo eliminated for the cookbook pages and the README's own runnable blocks (tests/test_readme.py byte-compares those).

Why it matters

The paragraph's whole value is that its numbers are real. A reader who spots one stale figure discounts every other verified claim on the page — including the ones the suite genuinely enforces.

What to consider

  • A test in tests/test_readme.py that parses the two figures out of the paragraph and compares them against reality: the collected test count (pytest --collect-only -q -m 'not live' re-derives it) and the module count (pkgutil.walk_packages over the source tree, the same walk release.yml does against the wheel). The test fails with "update the README paragraph" wording, the same contract the cookbook pages follow.
  • Or remove the numbers and keep the claims qualitative ("full suite green, wheel imports every submodule in a clean venv"), which cannot rot. Weaker page, zero maintenance.

The first option matches the repo's stated discipline: prose that states a checkable fact gets a check.

Acceptance criteria

Either the paragraph's figures are asserted by a test that fails when they drift, or the paragraph no longer contains figures that can drift.

                      What to consider
                      • A test in tests/test_readme.py that parses the two figures out of the paragraph and compares them against reality: the collected test count (pytest --collect-only -q -m 'not live' re-derives it) and the module count (pkgutil.walk_packages over the source tree, the same walk release.yml does against the wheel). The test fails with "update the README paragraph" wording, the same contract the cookbook pages follow.
                      • Or remove the numbers and keep the claims qualitative ("full suite green, wheel imports every submodule in a clean venv"), which cannot rot. Weaker page, zero maintenance.
                      The first option matches the repo's stated discipline: prose that states a checkable fact gets a check.
                      Acceptance criteria
                      Either the paragraph's figures are asserted by a test that fails when they drift, or the paragraph no longer contains figures that can drift.

                          What happens
                          The README closes with a Verified this pass paragraph quoting concrete numbers: how many tests passed, how many submodules the wheel imports in a clean virtualenv. Nothing in the suite checks that paragraph, so it drifts: it read "1,533 passed … 103 submodules" while the tree it described had grown to 1,754 tests and 116 submodules. It has been hand-corrected now, but the mechanism that let it rot is still there — which is exactly the failure mode this repo eliminated for the cookbook pages and the README's own runnable blocks (tests/test_readme.py byte-compares those).
                          Why it matters
                          The paragraph's whole value is that its numbers are real. A reader who spots one stale figure discounts every other verified claim on the page — including the ones the suite genuinely enforces.
