Y'know, I had a teammate who had been claiming this up until it became clear that the horrific spike in production defects that we were struggling with was mostly attributable to them.
I'm not going to say that's always what happens. But I will say that you can't find problems you aren't watching for.

I can't, but Claude almost regularly comes across "BTW things". I catch them because I read the lead agent's transcript, and have worker agents always add a retro section to their report, so I'm almost always seeing attention-worthy things pop up.
And I’m definitely not saying don’t do that.
But think of Claude as being like a particularly keen outsourced developer: great at the tactical stuff, but sometimes lacks common sense in weird and surprising ways, so you’ve still got to keep an eye on the work product.
