The rule
Only the owner's answer, or evidence the work produced, may clear a refusal. Never a line, word or file the agent writes.
What happened in one build over several days
Refusals the main agent received, classified one by one: 78 in all.
The one refusal the owner did clear, in a helper, took 8 minutes.
29 of 78 refusals were cleared by something the agent wrote itself. None by the owner.
