> Going back to typing all of the code yourself (my interpretation of "writing by hand") because you don't have the agent-managerial skills to tell the coding agents how to clean up the mess they made feels short-sighted to me.

Or those skills are a temporary side effect of the current SOTA and will be useless in the future, so honing them is pointless right now.

Agents shouldn't make messes, if they did what they say on the tin at least, and if folks are wasting considerable time cleaning them up, they should've just written the code themselves.
