I was experimenting with agents that had access to real systems — email, databases, APIs — and kept running into the same problem(?)/moment. The agent would be doing great, and then suddenly it would hit a decision point where the stakes were high enough that you really didn't want it to just proceed without you checking what it's done(my model pushing a commit at 4am with the message "minor fix" and a 400 line change :c ). But there was no clean way to say "pause here, ask a human, and then continue." You either built that infrastructure yourself for every project, or you didn't have it at all. The deeper problem isn't capability — modern models are impressive. It's trust. Not blind distrust, but the kind of calibrated trust where you let the agent handle the routine 95% autonomously and have a clean handoff system for the 5% that matters. That handoff didn't exist as a simple primitive you could drop into any stack.
