Human-in-the-Loop Query Review

Full automation and blind trust are not the same thing. Human-in-the-loop review means the AI does the work—writing the query in seconds—while a human retains the ability to check it: see the generated SQL, confirm it filters the right statuses and joins the right tables, and correct course when the interpretation is off. In practice this is graduated: routine questions run automatically, while high-stakes numbers (anything heading into a board deck or a customer email) get a human glance at the query first. The mechanism that makes review possible is transparency—a tool that hides its SQL makes verification impossible and asks for exactly the blind trust it has not earned.
