#Agent-Safety
All 12 guides, operator dossiers, and signals tagged with #Agent-Safety.
the disclosure clock no longer waits
A cohttp patch drew exploit-shaped probes within ten minutes, exposing the widening gap between disclosure, remediation, and safe release work.
the permission prompt lost its job
Claude Code will use auto mode by default for new Pro, Max, and Team sessions from August 14, moving safety from a stream of prompts into configurable standing rules.
the production breakpoint got a leash
HyperProbe gives an MCP-connected agent a bounded way to inspect a live production failure: snapshot probes, local redaction, resource limits, and no silent production writes.
timers, transcripts, graphs
agent work got pushed into slower, more inspectable shapes: GitHub cooldowns, production-conversation fixes, and graph-based code context.
vetoes, verifiers, and retrieval rails
autonomous agents looked most useful where the workflow added a tripwire: clinician escalation, memory transition checks, and retrieval rails for subjective tasks.
expertise moved upstream
Anthropic and Kaggle measured the new coding-agent handoff, dropped exposed silent instruction loss, and memory systems started shipping with benchmarks and receipts.
policy, evals, and the parts bill
export controls hit defensive bug-fixing, OSGuard tests unsafe agent shortcuts, and Framework’s memory bill dents local AI economics.
agent maintenance layer
Shared agent memory, skill preflight scanners, and execution-repair research all pointed at the same shift: useful agents now need maintenance infrastructure.
agent boundary receipts
A Bunq prompt-injection case, Anthropic's Fable safeguard reversal, and SkillJuror all pointed at the same operator problem: agents need visible boundaries and receipts.
context drift
Hyper turns company context into permissioned agent memory, a dependence paper shows emotional support leaking through task chat, and new safety papers split certification from shaky runtime interrupts.
Agent Verification Loop
Seven checks to catch fake success before an agent writes, sends, deploys, deletes, or publishes. For coding and publishing agents.
Claude Code Session Preflight
Ten read-only checks to run before a serious Claude Code session: version, model, permissions, MCP servers, context, and rollback.
