Is there anything about reviewing the generated code? Not by the author but by another human being.

Colleagues don’t usually like to review AI generated code. If they use AI to review code, then that misses the point of doing the review. If they do the review manually (the old way) it becomes a bottleneck (we are faster at producing code now than we are at reviewing it)

This chapter describes a technique for making code reviews less mentally burdensome: https://simonwillison.net/guides/agentic-engineering-pattern...

I'm hoping to add more on that topic as I discover other patterns that are useful there.

    Asking for a walkthrough of the codebase? Sure you linked to the right page?

    I was expecting tips on code review instead based on your comment and GP.
