• At high volume, Poteto recommends sampling PRs rather than reviewing every one. Review samples rigorously, identify recurring shortcuts or inefficient patterns, then change the environment so future agents avoid them. 49:15 49:37 50:26
  • The goal is not to stop looking at the work. Sampling provides feedback for changing skills, lint rules, constraints, and types; it does not mean treating quality as solved. 51:04 51:32
  • Poteto says he has more than 10 coordinator agents working across areas, including performance, user-reported bugs, and exploratory rewrites. He reviews their PRs after they land by inspecting commit history, then reverts or changes the environment when needed. 52:11 53:32
  • In Pstack's full-autopilot mode, each PR can go through verifier agents that run the app, click through it like a user, search for regressions, and ask the implementation agent to fix issues before landing. The process is token-intensive and can be tuned by changing the number of verifier agents. 52:38 53:07
  • Poteto credits trust in autopilot to the combination of verification and a constrained environment. He describes the transition as scary at first, and says it took sustained work to reach the point where agents could merge while he slept. 53:32 54:14 54:30
