Just don’t run directly. Use containers and VMs. Anyone running this stuff directly on their PC at this point in time shouldn’t be surprised. These companies don’t care about security, just your wallet. And we’ve seen how wallet theory goes, people still keep buying.

Yes. I spinned up 7 parallel agents, there was no visibility into what subagents are doing, which made it worse.
