I've been using Codemode with the new Dot so that Dot can coordinate my agents with:

1. Launching workflows, so it avoids some large configuration

2. Reviewing work, with reviewers restricted to read-only tools or specific tools. Or some tools for reviewers to check hashes, correctness, etc.

3. I'm using the widely used pi-extensible-workflows. So say you want to stop a workflow, you gonna call workflow_stop. Or check the status with workflow_status. Without Codemode, Pi exposes an API, that the agent can use. So yes, you can call workflow_status. Or call workflow_stop. With Codemode, the agent can do something more complex like a for loop over all the list of workflow ids and get a status and stop them all (again, it's just an example).

So basically, Codemode allows to build a sort of framework for more correctness like using a typed language vs. JavaScript without a linter. It gives boundaries essentially. And also Codemode allows an agent to do things more easily like using internal Pi extensions.
