Hallucinated / nonexistent API call

Part of the AI-generated code risks check · fix arrives as a guide

What it is

The code calls a method, option, or module that does not exist in the version of the library the project depends on. It is a plausible-looking API that the model invented.

Why it matters

If the call sits on a path your tests do not cover, it ships and fails at runtime with a TypeError in front of a user rather than in CI.

How to fix it

Check the call against the installed version's documentation and replace it with the real API. Turning on strict typechecking and a CI typecheck gate catches most of this class before review.
