    1. Those of you using Claude Code or Cursor on real projects with actual file system or database access, what happens if it does something you didn't expect? Do you have any way to stop it mid execution or roll back what it did? Or do you just hope for the best?
    2. Codex doesn't do exactly what I say. Is my prompt wrong?
    3. How do you know when a tweak broke your AI agent?
