The workflow was cache-dominant, suggesting that persistent agentic environments may shift the economic unit from cost per token to cost per completed artifact.
Observed high cache-read fraction (82.9% in May subset) and interpretation by authors that caching dominates token usage, leading to the suggestion about economic-unit shifts.

Depending on operational parameters, the most time-efficient way to complete a workflow may undergo a transition between two task-processing regimes: a fully AI-assisted regime and a fully manual regime.
Analytical results derived from the paper's formal queueing model (theoretical/model-based derivation; no empirical sample reported).
AI assistance can generate a deceptive productivity signature: average completion times fall because AI tools typically supply a fast first draft, yet workflow-level performance can deteriorate when a subset of AI errors escapes review and returns as costly downstream rework.
