Quick brief
Use HumanLayer when autonomous coding-agent sessions need explicit human review before touching risky files, commands, branches, or external systems. The operator wraps the coding-agent workflow with approval gates, reviews requests, records decisions, and lets the agent continue only when the action is accepted. The scope is human-in-the-loop control for coding-agent execution, not a generic IDE or broad collaboration product card.
