Ask HN: How do you cope with the broken rythm of agentic coding?

I used to seek focus and concentration while coding. It was not always easy to reach this flow state but I knew it was possible. I am now using agentic coding quite a lot. The honeymoon is finishing and I am starting to dislike some facets of it. I think the main setback is the rythm. Writing some specs/prompts, launching the agent, confirming quite atomic actions and waiting 10 to 30 seconds until the next question/confirmation. Those very small wait times do not let me reach a concentration state. I feel I am hovering the code. I am not deep into it as I used to be. Do you feel the same? Did you find a way to change this?
