Warnings are not confetti: build a warning budget before agents merge
Eight reviewer agents approved the merge and left a page full of yellow triangles. The button is live. The warnings are still alive. Here is the artifact for that gap.

Eight reviewer agents approved the merge and left a page full of yellow triangles. The button is live. The warnings are still alive. Here is the artifact for that gap.

Companies watch what their agents read and write. A new benchmark says watch what they ask, too. The search trail is a data surface.

A new static scanner called SkillsGuard treats agent skill packages as untrusted code, not documentation. The idea worth keeping: a skill is a future instruction source, so put it on a quarantine bench before it loads.

RootSign shows why agent audit logs need rehearsal. The chain may verify cleanly, but concurrency, retries, redaction, and tamper tests still deserve a deliberate break-it-first run.

A small open-source project turns a coding agent into a read-only compliance auditor. The reusable idea isn't the prompt. It's the room you run it in.

The hard part of multi-agent work is not picking a framework. It is the traffic between agents after one request fans out. Here is a copyable ledger for watching it.

A clean npm audit does not mean a clean workstation. MCP servers, plugins, and skills can sit outside the review. The Agent BOM intake note catches them.

When an AI agent needs Stripe access, the default move hands it the raw key. A better pattern gives it a secret handle, a host allowlist, and a daemon that owns the call. Here is the courier policy that makes that concrete.

AutoJack turned a single web page into a host-level code execution path through a local agent control socket. The useful lesson is not panic about one pre-release bug. It is that loopback stops being private when a browsing agent shares a host with privileged local services.

You run git log and the last line of the commit reads Co-authored-by: Claude. It shows up in the contributors list like a teammate who just joined. It isn't one. That gap is the whole post.

A background coding agent finishes a Worker and hits a sign-in wall. The risky fix is a permanent login. Cloudflare's temporary accounts point at a narrower one: disposable authority plus a claim ticket with a deadline.

A company cannot protect a swarm it has not counted. NeuralTrust's $20M raise is a signal that agent security is becoming infrastructure, but the first useful artifact is still a roster.
