# generated-write

An advisory: it explains, and blocks nothing, on a hand edit to a declared output, which the next run overwrites.

## What it catches

A hand edit to a declared output, which the next run overwrites.

## Seeing it

A verdict names its rule in brackets, which is how you got here:

```text
advise [generated-write]: ...
```

`magus describe rule generated-write` prints the same entry at a terminal, and
`magus describe rules` lists every rule this workspace enforces.
