When the assistant tries to change your code and the change doesn't land, you get a reply with nothing to apply and no idea why. It reads as though the assistant just decided not to help.
We can't simply warn whenever a reply comes back with no code. Plenty of answers legitimately have none: ask what an adaptor does and you get prose, and a warning there would be noise.
Apollo already tells us the difference. When it attempts an edit it sends back whether any patches applied, and sometimes a warning saying why not. We read neither. Reading them would let us say something like "I tried to update your code but couldn't apply the change."
This was written into the body of #4884 rather than given its own issue, which is why it kept falling off the end.
