I mean what's the big deal? I use --dangeorusly-skip-permissions on every single interaction in the last 6 months. Worst case it deletes my files that are all on git? It fucks up my local DB? Cool.

I save way more time not babying it than the occasional fuck up I have to salvage.

Worst case it gets access to gmail. And Github. And the Internet. I'm increasingly appreciating the importance of a physical finger-press on Yubikey to trigger the FIDO2 + OIDC Auth. I don't think there is an easy way for it to hack a new session.
How is it going to get access to gmail or github? In any case, whats the probability of it going to so completely off the rails that it does something horrendous with gmail/github? Whats it going to do? Email my coworkers nudes on my computer? Make my github profile public?
I am most worried about something gaining access to my email and then using the password reset flow to steal hundred hundreds of other accounts.

2FA makes me a little less nervous than I used to be, but not everything has good 2FA.

It should run as a separate user account with its own home directory. Not with access to your personal browser profile.
What does setting this up look like? Qemu vm and run there? How do you interface with version control and deployment?
