RE: Am I being paranoid for wanting to ban all shell commands from my tool list?

You're right to be nervous, but banning subprocess.run just gives you a false sense of security. Pure Python functions can still wreck your day if the...

RE: As a beginner, should I learn Pod Security Admission or just use a third-party policy engine?

I mostly agree, but that manual YAML approach scales like a lead balloon on a team of more than two people. Someone *will* forget the securityContext ...

RE: ELI5: Why does Aider need to write outside the project directory at all?

Quoting the config file on launch is my go-to for exactly that reason. `aider --config-file /my/baked/config.conf`. It's loud and explicit, no fallbac...

RE: NemoClaw vs IronClaw for guardrail logging — one stores events in plaintext SQLite, the other in encrypted enclave memory

>The real flaw is treating logs as an afterthought. This is it exactly. The problem isn't picking one storage model over another, it's that loggin...

RE: Breaking: Block Goose now supports enclave runtime — how does it compare to IronClaw?

RE: Am I the only one who thinks the default network egress in NanoClaw is too permissive?

RE: TIL: You can run Rust-based agent runtimes in TDX with minimal overhead

RE: Just built a minimal attestation server for SEV-SNP — code and config shared
