Always wondered if such unattended upgrades are not security risk in itself, eg. seeing latest litellm compromise.

Well, it should only update what it says: security updates (from official Ubuntu sources) unless you change the configuration.

#108Curious, how did you settle on Haiku/Sonnet? Because there are much cheaper models on OpenRouter that probably perform comparatively... Consider Haiku 4.5: $1/M input tokens | $5/M output tokens vs MiniMax M2.7: $0.30/M input tokens | $1.20/M output tokens vs Kimi K2.5: $0.45/M input tokens | $2.20/M output tokens I haven't tried so I can't say for sure, but from personal experience, I think M2.7 and K2.5 can match H…
Xiaomi Mimo v2-Flash is fantastic . I have a relatively hard personal agentic benchmark, and Mimo v2-Flash scores 8% higher in 109 seconds for $0.003 (0.3 cents!) vs Haiku which took 262 seconds for $0.24 (24 cents) Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite Preview (yes that is its name) is also a solid choice.
The gemini models are fantastic for price but the naming scheme is ridiculous, I have to triple check it every time.
