Summary from the TLDR Dev newsletter

Gittifacts routes agent-written changes to auto-merge, quick review, or full review based on test evidence and repository policy, after a human approves the plan. Missing signals can only increase scrutiny, and feature flags make merged changes reversible. Auto-merge still relies on the submitting agent's test environment for some evidence, while evidence generation took 13 to 17 minutes per change on the project's own repository.
