Because I might just not have a great imagination, but it's very hard for me to see how you basically automate the review process on anything that is business critical or has legal risks.

On the security layer, I wrote that code mostly by hand, with some 'pair programming' with Claude to get the Oauth handling working.
When I have the agent working on tasks independently, it's usually working on feature-specific business logic in the API and frontend. For that work it has a lot of standard helper functions to read/write data for the current authenticated user. With that scaffolding it's harder (not impossible) for the bot to mess up.
It's definitely a concern though, I've been brainstorming some creative ways to add extra tests and more auditing to look out for security issues. Overall I think the key for extremely fast development is to have an extremely good testing strategy.
I think where I've become very hesitant is a lot of the programs that I touch has customer data belonging to clients with pretty hard-nosed legal teams. So it's quite difficult for me to imagine not reviewing the production code by hand.
