Decision boundary for Codex
Stop babysitting Codex.
Let Him Grill resolves safe, reversible planning decisions on its own—and stops when your judgment actually changes the outcome.
Not a blanket “continue autonomously” instruction: it records the path, pauses at material Human-Gates, and reassesses dependent branches when earlier choices change. Open a portable decision tree.
