Understanding Human–AI Work Compatibility

Compatibility is a property of workflows, not of personalities.

“Compatibility” is an easy word to misuse. We do not mean personality matching, and we will not infer psychological traits from work data.

We mean something operational: does a workflow route the right work to the right participant, with the right amount of review? An agent that is reliable on routine changes and a reviewer whose approvals track that reliability form a compatible loop. Over-approval wastes the reviewer; under-approval lets defects escape.

How we would measure it

Track R06 defines calibrated trust as agreement between approval decisions and later-verified correctness, aggregated per team. It is measurable without profiling anyone, and it is actionable.

This is a concept note. It reports no experiments and no results.
