Coding Agents Need a Human Reviewer, Full Stop
Cursor and Claude write code fast. The diff is where I stay employed.
I use coding agents daily and I read every line they change. No exception.
Once, an agent rewrote a function I depended on elsewhere and the tests passed anyway.
The plan step helps; a multi-file edit without a review is how production breaks at 2 a.m.
Treat the agent like a junior who's fast and confident and occasionally wrong.
The speed is real. So is the risk. Review the diff like it's a teammate's PR, because it is.
