The part on the harness is spot on.

I have been encouraging people to think about agentic coding in the same way.

Let agents do the reading and writing and inspections. Human does the thinking.

Asking an agent that is looking at a firearm specification schematic "what is wrong with this?" and the response is "this thing contains an explosion and can kill". Human "that's the function" when the human should be asking "based upon the materials used, are the fault tolerances sufficient to maintain structural integrity".
