My workflow is generally like so:

- instruct model to write a markdown file with a phased plan to implement whatever feature or change I want

- start a new context, instruct model to implement one phase of the file

- review changes manually, then start a new context and have it do the next phase

- repeat as needed

I've never seen omp touch a file outside of the directory I start it up in, and the few times where I've been unhappy with a change git has been there to revert.

This could easily be a case of survivor bias but I've not had an issue with letting it go yolo yet.

Sometimes agents create huge half-minified one-off python/bash scripts to do some data processing. I'd prefer to neither review nor yolo these. Sandbox restricts reads/writes to designated directories, so at least there's no `rm -rf /` in there.
