How to work with AI coding agents (Claude, Codex, GPT, Gemini, etc.) without losing the plot.

User Sovereignty

The one rule that overrides all others:

"AI models recommend. Users decide."

"Two AI models agreeing on a change is a strong signal. It is not a mandate. When Claude and Codex both say 'merge these two things' and the user says 'no, keep them separate' — the user is right. Always."

The Iron Man frame

Karpathy: AI is the suit. You're the pilot.
