For the last few months, I’ve been running a dozen AI agents at the same time. The bottleneck was never the code they wrote. It was my ability to specify success, review diffs, and keep product judgment in the loop.
Agents are excellent at scaffolding and tedious edits. They are weak at taste and knowing when a feature should not exist. Treat them like junior teammates with infinite typing speed: give them observable criteria, verify with a real run, then call it done.
