I personally am somewhere between you and the author. I don't check _all_ the intermediary steps, but I do try to understand what it's doing [1] and follow the process. Mostly I let it do the changes itself without supervision at each step but when a coherent "chunk" of work is done, I go through it really thoroughly. In almost 90% of the cases after a chunk is done some adjustments are needed.

I find broad architectural design to be _better_ if you follow along in the process because you better understand the direction it's going earlier and you can shift the high level direction much earlier. Even if you check its steps, you can ask it for its take on high-level architectural aspects along the way, no problem. I think personal touch matters a lot though, because I naturally ask it and try to get the big picture image.

[1] I actually find it really instructive what tooling it uses to tackle a problem, I got to become a much better console user because of it
