Key techniques include granting agents full permissions (while using sandbox mode for safety), teaching agents to verify their own work through screenshots or test suites, using Codex for automated agentic code review on PRs or branches, and running agents on a remote or always-on machine to avoid interruptions. The core argument is that human review time is now the bottleneck in software development, so maximizing autonomous agent runtime directly increases engineering throughput. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
