Ask freely, ship deliberately: an architecture for human-in-the-loop AI product changes

Trida AI argues that agent autonomy should not be a general policy but based on specific actions requiring human pauses to avoid habitual approvals. Similarly, Butterneck suggests that while coding agents can automate production deployments, keeping a human in the loop remains essential. This is because the critical part of product changes is the human decision, which is cost-effective and prevents errors for those unable to read the diff, ensuring oversight without creating bottlenecks.
