Right, yes, that was precisely my point - it was weird to me that people were comfortable operating on a codebase that they don't have locally, that they can't directly interact with.

I have a project where I've made a rule that no code is written by humans. It's been fun! It's a good experience to learn how far even pre-Opus 4.5 agents can be pushed.
It's pretty clear to me that in 12 months time looking at the code will be the exception, not the rule.
12 month from now, when something go wrong, you'll have a lot of code to look at and debug!

Absolutely - for me, that's already true. I just wouldn't want to give up the ability to _ever_ look at the code before I submit it!
when the agent pushes the PR, in a branch, you can switch to that branch locally on your machine and do whatever, review it, change it, and ask for extra modifications on top, squash it, rebase it
Yes, that had already been suggested here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46492948
