The question under all four: if agents write, research, draft and file, what is the person for? The articles answer it from different ends, and they agree. [How much of this did I write?](../../articles/how-much-of-this-did-i-write.md) measures it. The corrections the author made over four weeks were to direction, framing, voice, vocabulary and scope, and one was a fact. Its sentence that the Historian pulled out as [a nugget](../../articles/desk/a-model-that-can-go-in-every-direction.md) is the summary: a model that can go in every direction needs someone with a direction. [The Mandate Stack](../../articles/the-mandate-stack.md) puts the person in the last of its eight layers, holding the one step that cannot be undone, and itself points to the next two pieces for where the human's review happens and what the human's input is. [The agent team as it runs](../../articles/the-agent-team-as-it-runs.md) writes the same thing as a rule, *no agent sends*: agents draft, a person sends. [The wall under the reply](../../articles/the-wall-under-the-reply.md) is what that person needs at the moment of review: the state of the thread, for this reader, instead of the quoted wall. ## The articles [2026-10-05Graphs & knowledge7 threads**How much of this did I write?
