Rollback

Claude Code needs a rollback note before code

Before Claude Code edits production-adjacent code, ask for the rollback note. If the agent cannot explain how to undo the change, the task contract is not ready yet.

Claude Code needs a stop rule before more autonomy

Claude Code gets risky when a failed run keeps retrying without a stop rule. Use failure budgets, review packets, evals, and rollback notes before giving agents more autonomy.

Claude Code team adoption needs a seatbelt runbook

Claude Code gets risky when teams roll it out through enthusiasm instead of a runbook. Start with task contracts, scoped permissions, review packets, evals, and rollback before widening autonomy.

The Claude Code review packet I want before approving agent work

A Claude Code diff is not enough evidence for production review. Ask for the objective, permission boundary, tool trace, tests, failures, cost, and rollback path before approving agent work.

Claude Code Rollback Plans Belong in the Prompt

If a Claude Code agent can change production-shaped code, the prompt should say how to undo the work. Rollback is not paperwork after the diff. It is part of the task boundary.
