// Abstract
Most people cripple coding agents by micromanaging them—reviewing every step and becoming the bottleneck.
The shift isn’t to better supervise agents, but to design systems where they work well on their own: parallelized, self-validating, and guided by strong processes.
Done right, you don’t lose control—you gain leverage. Like paving roads for cars, the real unlock is reshaping the environment so AI can move fast.
