Like https://www.securityweek.com/hackers-target-popular-nx-build... ? Or the many people putting content in their LI profiles, forums like these, etc because they know scrapers are targeting them ? Or the above, for the users stating they are using it to scrape hn?

I only had time to skim this, but it doesn't seem like prompt injection to me, just good old fashioned malware in a node package. Your other two examples do seem to open the door for prompt injection, I was just asking about documented cases of it succeeding.

Thanks for sharing. For the past month or so I've been slowly having claude build something in the same ballpark. Basically something to nag you to take care of grown-up things so your boss/spouse/local municipality doesn't have to. I was going to call it "Nagatha Christy", but the joke gets old after 48 hours. At the moment, its called "Jarbis" (old Simpsons reference). For me, checklists are useful but I suck at cr…

Building it now. Basically raw agents you can talk to over any channel like Slack/Telegram/etc. (Should have SMS and voice calling working shortly.) Can connect to your email/calendar. Files and sqlite for memory/storage. Optional sandbox for coding or whatever. It's all a bit rough but working.

What if we will go even further? I have built end-to-end messaging layer for Clawdbot to talk to each other, called Murmur - https://github.com/slopus/murmur . We tried this with friends and it is truly magical (while crazy insecure) - i can ask my agent to search friends life, their preferences, about their calendars, what films they are watching. It can look at emails and find if you need something and go to people…

Sounds futuristic but then, for this particular example, isn't this just a very hard way to get access to their calendar, which their could share w/ you in 10 seconds on their Gmail tab?

The problem that you expose everything, why i need to expose my health things to coworkers? or surprise party planning? with prompts you can limit exposure easily.

It's good at making new skills for itself, and the ability to add to WhatsApp, telegram, and discord means sharing access to internal applications and not needing users to get onto VPN makes a great combination.

You're just telling me common features. Those are just normal things now

What systems are making new skills for themselves? Not being snarky, I find this sort of self-teaching incredibly interesting but have only ever seen this approach

I'm looking at it right now as a tool I can hollow out and stuff in my own MCP server that also has personas, skills, an agentic loop, memory, all those pieces. I may even go simpler than that and simply take a look at it's gateway and channels and drag those over and slap them onto the MCP server I have and turn it into an independent application. It looks far too risky to use, even if I have it sequestered in its o…

Where I think agents become fascinating is when we give cc an interface to something like clawdebot, plus any logging/observability, and tell it to recreate the code base.

We at Qordinate have made a managed version - which works on Telegram, Slack, WhatsApp, and our own app at the moment. With iMessage, Email, Teams in pipeline. Think - if you don't want to do the hassle of managing this yourself, you can offload that to us, along with security aspects of prompt injection, and performance aspects of tool search, etc. If you want to try, it's available for free right now since we are early at https://qordinate.ai

Hey, I have been using this on whatsapp, and I got mindblown first time I used it, and really love its personality. I use it for all sorts of reminders nowadays. Only thing is I was facing some latex formatting issues last time I used but I don’t know maybe that’s a Whatsapp rendering issue

Thanks for trying. Yeah we have optimized for markdown at the moment, will look into latex issue.
