The hassle is all on the agent, not on me.

So much this. That hassle on the agent, a few minutes of me waiting for it to crunch out the unit tests, saves me tons of hassle later - not going in circles re-fixing problems that were fixed before.

Same for keeping implementation code and documentation in sync - I've got hundreds of out-of-date wiki pages that simply aren't worth my time to fix. But when it's the agent keeping the docs in sync, just tell it to do it and wait a few minutes - totally worth the effort.
