Human-in-the-Loop Interface Patterns

Human-in-the-loop patterns keep experts in control while reducing friction. The interface is where alignment happens.

Principles

• Minimal clicks, maximum context.
• Capture corrections at the moment of judgment.
• Make rationale visible, not just scores.
• Keep escalation paths clear.

Common components

• Triage queues with fast accept or reject.
• Correction panels that refine prompts and rubrics.
• Audit trails for decisions that matter.
• Confidence thresholds for auto-approve vs review.
