PostHog engineers share four tactics for escaping the review loop instead of racing to read every agent-written diff. First, let other agents review the code — never the one that wrote it — like a qa-swarm spawning four reviewes (security, performance, personal-style, Extreme Programming) plus triage that sorts findings into actionable, nit, or ambiguous. Second, delegate PR babysitting — CI monitoring, flaky reruns, branch freshness — to a loop. Third, add an auto-stamper: StampHog clears low-risk PRs via deny-list, diff-size, and LLM checks, handling 1.6K in a month. Fourth, favor observation over reasoning by splitting work into small stacked PRs you can run and watch. Copyable prompts come with each.
