In 2025 AI still requires you to watch it do it's work and catch it early before it goes fully off the rails, like driving a Tesla. That's impossible in the github UI. It doesn't help that the MS engineers are shit a prompting ("tests are failing, please fix" is way way too vague) but the whole idea of doing it through github is doomed from the start.
