Week 6 Reflection: What Makes Automation Safe Enough to Trust?

In 6–9 sentences, describe the strongest guardrail in your Week 6 automation design.

Address:

• the side effect being controlled;
• the precondition or stop condition;
• the evidence produced by the script;
• what happens on partial failure;
• what happens on a second run; and
• what still requires human judgment.

Avoid saying “automation removes human error.” Explain which errors it reduces and which new failure modes it introduces.
