Good call, I'll add that. I think I mentally scrambled it with OpenHands.

Thanks for adding pi to it though :)

On this including AI agents deleting home folders, I was able to run agents in Firejail by isolating vscode (Most of my agents are vscode based ones, like Kilo Code).

I wrote a little guide on how I did it https://softwareengineeringstandard.com/2025/12/15/ai-agents...

Took a bit of tweaking, vscode crashing a bunch of times with not being able to read its config files, but I got there in the end. Now it can only write to my projects folder. All of my projects are backed up in git.

Remember, back in the day, when a year of progress was like, oh, they voted to add some syntactic sugar to Java...

> they voted to add some syntactic sugar to Java... I remember when we just wanted to rewrite everything in Rust. Those were the simpler times, when crypto bros seemed like the worst venture capitalism could conjure.

Crypto bros in hindsight were so much less dangerous than AI bros. At least they weren't trying to construct data centers in rural America or prop up artificial stocks like $NVDA.
