Your AI database agent should not approve its own writes

The riskiest AI database workflow is not a bad SELECT. It is a write that looks reasonable. Update the customer status. Fix the subscription record. Mark these invoices as reviewed. Some writes are legitimate. That does not mean the model should approve them. The model should propose, not decide An AI agent can help prepare a change: inspect context draft the SQL or API call explain the expected side effect identify related records produce a dry-run summary But approval should live outside the model loop.
