The author proposes a safer approach to integrating AI agents into business workflows, particularly for small businesses. Instead of immediately deploying fully autonomous agents, they advocate for a 'draft queue' system where AI suggests actions or drafts responses, which are then reviewed and approved by a human before execution. This method, utilizing the Model Context Protocol (MCP) for standardized tool exposure, prioritizes safety by separating read-only or drafting tasks from 'side effect' actions like sending emails or updating CRMs. The article suggests starting with simple, inspectable workflows and using a 'shadow mode' to log proposed actions and compare them with human decisions before enabling any automated execution.
