I hear this a lot but I don't think decades of experience atrophies irretrievably so quickly as to make it worth it (alone) to abstain from making full use of these tools. I still read and direct enough of the architecture to not be lost in the code it generates. Maybe you haven't tried using agents to reorganize/refactor as much - I have cleaner code than I did before when it was done by hand, because I can afford to tackle debts.

I also don't find the permissions it prompts for very meaningful. Permission to use a file search tool? Permission to make a web request? It's a clumsy way to slow it down enough for me to catch up.
