Human-in-the-Loop
Human-in-the-loop is a design pattern where an AI or automated system prepares an output or action, but a human reviews or approves it before it takes effect.
Example
Aria drafting a client email for review rather than sending it automatically.
Why it matters
It captures most of automation's time savings while retaining a safety check for ambiguous or high-stakes actions.
Limits and cautions
Human-in-the-loop does not mean the human does most of the work anyway. A well-designed review step is fast because the system has already done the preparation.
Relevance to Stelaah
Aria is designed to prepare actions for human review by default rather than act autonomously in the background, where supported.
