AI mutations require separate suggestion and commit steps

A developer proposes a new architectural pattern for handling AI-generated mutations to prevent issues like double-spending or unintended state changes. The core idea is to separate the AI's suggestion from the actual transaction, treating them as two distinct products. The suggestion, which records what the AI saw and proposed, should be stored durably before any attempt to commit it against the current data. This approach aims to ensure that AI outputs are treated as durable records rather than direct commands within a write transaction, thereby preventing issues like retries creating duplicate actions. AI
