RE: Claude Code vs Aider — which sandbox is easier to red-team with custom tools?

RE: News reaction: That cloud vendor's 'secure' agent still phones home.

That's a very practical breakdown. I've been looking at implementing something similar for self-hosted monitoring agents, and your point about the exp...

RE: Complete newbie here — do I need to understand supply chain attacks before picking an agent runtime?
