Sphinx pauses agent-assisted pushes to quiz developers on code changes
Sphinx adds a Git hook that asks developers questions about an AI agent’s diff before allowing a protected-branch push. It offers a lightweight way to check understanding of agent-written code, though the excerpt gives no evaluation results.
- What
