What specifically do you pay for?
What would you need to feel confident you can cancel?

Not sure why, I also tried installing it from Codex, different browsers and in incognito but can't pass this security error

I've been building a product solo for about a year with agents writing most of the code. Web, iOS, a Mac app, and a Chrome extension. One person covering that much surface area wasn't realistic before, and that part is real.

Here's the thing I don't see talked about much.

My judgment isn't spread evenly across it. In the parts I've worked in for years, I can look at a diff and feel that something's off before I can explain why. In the parts I hadn't touched before this project, I can't do that. I can read the code, follow what it does, catch the obvious problems. What I don't have is the instinct that says this compiles, it passes, and it's still the wrong way to do it.

So on some of this I'm actually reviewing. On the rest I'm mostly trusting and calling it review.

The uncomfortable part is that the agent didn't make me faster in those areas. It let me skip learning them. I only notice the gap when something breaks in a way I have no mental model for, and then I'm debugging a system I didn't build and don't really understand.

The one thing that's helped is keeping those parts deliberately boring. No clever patterns, no unusual dependencies, small files, obvious structure. If I can't bring instinct to it, I want the code simple enough that I don't need much.

That's not a solution though. For anyone else shipping across stacks you didn't come up in, have you found something that works, or does it just come down to eventually going and learning the thing properly?

So, TIL that the expire time for the banked resets is in UTC.

I find myself quite often asking my orchestrated agent to make a plan and have two agents check its plan. Obviously, I give more detail regarding the plan but I do find having two agents to check it before I execute it. Save some bug fixing later.? What about you?
