My rule of thumb is, any special processes you put in place for AIs are either sensible for humans as well, or they’re not worthwhile. Good CLIs, auto-summarization of long command outputs, Markdown docs and workflows -- those are all useful for people too!
To guard against mistakes and abuse, you use sandboxing and scoped permissions, not micromanagement.
One thing I’d like to figure out is a good pair-programming workflow for AI agents. You can tell a high-level model to go and do something, and that works; you can use a low-level model as an IDE assistant, and that works; but they’re separate workflows. What would be really useful is a way to kind of hand the keyboard back and forth with the high-end model and build something together. But safely, not in full-on YOLO mode on my own machine. This is one specific area where humans and LLMs differ -- it’s so much faster than me that I can’t just grab the keyboard back from it if it goes off the rails.
