Caught from prod after Phase 4 ship — "test all your tools and give me a report" got 0 tool calls / 0 steps because Sonnet read it as a description request, not an exercise request. Single-line prompt addition telling it to actually run tools when the user asks to test/demo/verify capabilities.

User asked the prod bot 'test all your tools and give me a report' in a
channel; bot replied verbally without calling any tools (0 tools / 0
steps in the audit row). Reasonable interpretation by Sonnet — the
prompt says be concise + prefer tool calls 'when you need information',
which 'test' doesn't trigger.

Adds an explicit guideline: if the user asks to test, demonstrate,
verify, exercise, or show off the tools/capabilities, actually call
the relevant tools and report what they returned. Don't just describe
them.

Caught from prod audit immediately after Phase 4 ship.
