Limit it

Hard limits around the agent: what it may touch, scripts that stop a bad step, its own copy to work in.

  1. Stop 1, next

    What it may touch permissions, sandbox

    Think of it when you hand an agent a task and walk away from the keyboard.

    StartAbout 3 minutes. The word for it comes at the end.

  2. Stop 2, next

    A script that blocks a step hook

    Think of it when a rule must hold every time, and the agent sometimes forgets it.

    StartAbout 3 minutes. The word for it comes at the end.

  3. Stop 3, next

    Its own copy to work in isolation, worktree

    Think of it when two agents, or you and an agent, will change the same project at the same time.

    StartAbout 3 minutes. The word for it comes at the end.
