way worse things can happen than your machine being bricked, if a malicious actor can weaponize an agent to do their bidding

In my experience, human employees are much more vulnerable to this particular weakness than frontier agents (i.e. phishing attacks).

I'm not letting Jenna from HR log into my personal machine with access to all of my lifelong data though. I do let my claude bypass permissions though

the solution to both of these is the same thing. vps with accounts for all the services specific to the agent (github and whatever else)

That's actually a great idea! Easier to setup and use than VM (hello ssh), safer than docker, and still pretty cheap. Thank you for the idea!
