    Considering that ripgrep, git, and, you know, other dev tools are part of the toolbox, then why ship them inside this executable? And, furthermore, if you ship them, then why stop …

    If you can spin up a new software project with little to no effort, the most important part of the job becomes making the right decisions and this is where we will be spending 99.9…

    Full disclosure I'm a founder of cbk.ai and chatbotkit.com, where we've built reusable agent components. I have never really saw flowise, n8n the now defunct OpenAI agent builder a…

    Because it is a workflow builder. It is the wrong mental model. Agents and workflows are completely different things.

    I might restart my old security blog then... anyway I wonder what will happen. I think it might get flooded by automated AI submissions.

    How does that help 99.9% of all other companies though?

    Wake me when they deliver Opus 4.8 level performance for $5 per million tokens.

    I have mixed feelings about software factories! On one hand, our core product is just simply not fit for them at its scale. We've tried but the project is large enough to require h…

    Part of the threat model. If that is an issue then don't add the capability to the agent. It is simple as that. But we cannot guarantee that the agent wont leak some information. S…

    I don't think there is any dispute there is a real risk. But hype does not really help shape the conversation and this is the problem. I am sure both companies know more than they …

    I am not saying it is marketing but typically when there is a data breach you may hear from the CISO but most of the time is is vague PR response. In this case I get loud signals f…

    Perhaps you are right. We've only been using them for two weeks.

    Hang on a second. You think accessing private information in a public channel is a good idea? If a tool is authenticated as personal then it can be only accessed under personal con…

    We've tried them. So far quite expensive with not much return. This channel might not work as well as search.

    No channel will disclose private information. The only way to get that to work is to DM the agent directly or to use slash commands which are ephemeral / private.

    It is safe bet to assume that all of them are generated with LLMs.

    Comment #48997318

    I agree with what you are saying but this is not how we solved the issue with who can access what. In our cloud harness we have the notion of shared and private secrets. When somet…

    I am not sure. I think of myself as a pro user yet I am finding hard time maxing out Pro tier. It only happens with sub-agents without any material returns.

    The reason most people burn through their allocated limits is mostly because of sub-agents. Stop using them and you will find out that even the Pro tier is enough for daily 8-12h c…
