I don't review my code anymore. I ask the agent to generate markdown docs, graphviz diagrams, changelogs, audit reports, etc. I only review that. I also ask it to write test and evaluate by whether the tests passed or not. I don't need to peak into the tests code - I can also ask plain english, pseudocode, control flow graph, whatever it is I want. I can ask it to find errors or missing tests and improve that too! code is like assembly now. rare are the cases you would need to peak into that level. ๐™’๐™€๐™‡๐˜พ๐™Š๐™ˆ๐™€ ๐™๐™Š ๐™๐™ƒ๐™€ ๐™๐™๐™๐™๐™๐™€!
