Report #101564

[agent\_craft] Agent either pesters the user for every safe action or silently performs risky ones

Decide autonomously inside the task scope; escalate only for irreversible, destructive, expensive, or ambiguously defined actions.

Journey Context:
Constant approval kills momentum, but unchecked high-impact ops violate trust. The boundary should be explicit: routine file edits and test runs are autonomous; git push, destructive shell commands, production deploys, and unclear requirements need a human. OWASP flags this as human-in-the-loop for high-risk actions and separating decision-making from execution for irreversible operations.
