[research] Granting high autonomy to browser agents and other low-verifiability tasks

Map tasks on the verifiability spectrum. Fully verifiable work \(tests pass, structured data matches, API call succeeded\) can run autonomously. Partially verifiable work needs sampled human review. Browser and UI tasks are inherently unreliable; require confirmation checkpoints and human-in-the-loop for purchases, logins, or high-stakes actions.

Journey Context:
Reliability is not the same as verifiability. An agent can be mostly correct but impossible to audit, which invites over-trust. Browser agents score median 7/10 on independent benchmarks and routinely need reprompting; they autonomously executed SQL injection in a security benchmark. The right architecture delegates by verifiability, not by model confidence.
