Your Agent Passes All Checks. Do You Still Read Every Run?
Future_AGI · reddit · 2026-08-19
Describes a common habit among developers using AI agents: even if the agent passes all checks, they still read the entire diff line-by-line before merging.
Core Discussion:
- The Trust Gap: The first PR an agent opened on migrations might have been perfect, but you watched it like a hawk anyway.
- The Letting Go Point: What actually made you stop babysitting? A specific class of tasks, a tool that earned trust, or are you still reading every run?
- Current Reality: Are most of us still supervising every single run?
