Coming back from vacation this week, work felt strangely tedious. Recently, I’ve really felt that working with agents is pure decision-making: make a call, move to the next one, repeat. Very few natural breaks. Almost like working on an assembly line. Repetitive, but mentally hard at the same time.

And the more autonomy the agents have, the more the work shifts from doing to verifying. Verifying whether the code is actually good. Whether the right attributes were chosen. Whether the decisions make sense. Whether the architecture is going in the right direction.

Agents remove a lot of execution. But they replace it with a constant stream of small, consequential decisions. The work got harder.
