The same command failed 7 times in 3 minutes - then passed. Agents run their own build and test commands, and in a team of agents the code can change under a command between runs. One agent ran the exact same command 7 times over 3 minutes; every run failed. The command never changed - the code underneath it did: 4 file writes landed inside the loop window, and the next run passed.
