Most broken Clay tables were broken before the first row ran: wrong table shape, a pill that sends as a literal string, an integration field that will not parse a dynamic input, sandbox state misread. This skill front loads the failure catalog: it routes the build request, verifies inputs and provider constraints against documented behavior, and refuses to generate an instruction that is known to fail. It encodes a catalog of real production failures and the rules that prevent each one. The output is a build instruction that works the first time, or a precise reason it will not.
