+### When to Use Manual vs. Automatic Review
+
+**Standard CI/CD changes (can be auto-merged after CI validation):**
+- Coverage threshold adjustments (74% → 80%)
+- Script bug fixes (analyze-version.py error handling)
+- Dependency updates in workflows
+- Minor workflow optimizations
+
+**Complex CI/CD changes (require manual review):**
+- New security workflows
+- Permission changes
+- Major workflow restructuring
+- Infrastructure-as-code modifications

 ### Best Practices for AI Agents
 
 1. **Always use ci-cd-maintenance branch** for workflow changes
-2. **Never auto-merge CI/CD changes** - always require manual review
+2. **Assess complexity** - standard changes can auto-merge, complex ones need manual review
 3. **Validate thoroughly** before pushing changes
-4. **Provide clear review instructions** for humans
+4. **Provide clear categorization** (standard vs. complex) in PRs
 5. **Plan rollback strategy** before making changes
 6. **Monitor CI health** after changes are merged
