To be perfectly honest if you’re spending much time reading and/or reviewing actual code something is going wrong in the agentic pipeline. The time investment should be paid earlier during the design brainstorming and design phase - by the time agents start coding assume that 90% of their code is solid and the remaining 10% will be solved with some iterations. Yes this means spending time to figure out how to engineer your harness and everything around it.

I think the only code that deserves human review these days is mission critical code or iterating on user/agent facing interfaces to make sure dx is smooth.
