OWN THE OUTER LOOP
Summary from the TLDR newsletter
Agents can write code, but someone must be able to explain exactly what changed, why it was safe, and what will happen if they're wrong, otherwise, their actions can't be justified. Engineers need to own the outer loop and be accountable for systems. Humans are still required in the constraints loop, the sampling loop, the audit loop, and the ownership loop. The scarce resource is human judgment informed by quality signals like logs or tests.
