I’m less worried about deliberate exfiltration and more about the structural opacity of these systems. You’re essentially being asked to trust that data boundaries are respected, without any practical way to independently verify those guarantees. Even if the current implementation is sound, the risk surface isn’t static providers, deployment paths, logging practices, and incentives all shift over time. For short-lived or organisational codebases, that trade-off can be reasonable. For personal or long-horizon projects, I’m more cautious. Once intent, context, or structure is absorbed upstream, there’s no meaningful way to claw it back.
