Also true of a land mine, but that’s not very reassuring.

Motivation or not, I find a coding agent can be quite the busy beaver. Ask a question and it goes off and does it. I certainly don’t need to motivate them. I had to put a line in AGENTS.md to make no changes when there’s a question in the prompt. It doesn’t always work.

Seems like motivation is irrelevant? They don’t need it.
