Every Iteration Makes Your Code Less Secure
43.7% of LLM iteration chains introduce more vulnerabilities than baseline. Adding SAST scanners makes it worse. SCAFFOLD-CEGIS cuts degradation to 2.1%.

AI DevelopmentAgent Sandbox Security Is a Suggestion: Three Failure Levels
An attacker opened a GitHub issue and shipped malware in Cline's next release. Agent sandboxes fail at three levels. Here is what actually works.
AI & TechnologyAI Agent Observability: Monitoring What You Can't See
AI agents consume disk, CPU, and network with zero operator visibility. Three observability layers close the gap before damage is irreversible.
AI & TechnologyAgent Sessions Are the Real Commit Messages We Discard
Git captures what changed. Agent sessions capture why. When agents write code, the session transcript is the real design document — and we discard it.
AI & TechnologySilent Egress: The Attack Surface You Didn't Build
A malicious web page injected instructions into URL metadata. The agent fetched it, read the poison, and exfiltrated the API key. No error. No log.
