More humans. Seriously. Keep more humans in the loop. Everything else does and will fail. Humans add resilience to systems; demand and complexity reduce resilience. You’re describing the infrastructure of a large system — it’s a custom-built machine designed to serve a custom purpose. There are no examples in the world of things like that working without a lot of human intervention. This is compounded, as you say, by increasing demands placed on the system: “Now it must react to AIs committing code,” or “Our customer base is growing but your Ops budget is decreasing.” This means the system needs more humans, not fewer.
