That it’s even an issue is a sign of how insanely insecure agent frameworks are.

Users don’t even do the most basic checks to (say) verify and clean bot actions, limit them, containerize them, anything. That’s “getting fired” unacceptable in pretty much any other field.

It’s also insane how susceptible the bots are to prompt injections. It’s not just that they’re dumb, or that they ignore licenses and dev requests, but that they’re trained to be sycophantic until they’re deep fried, without any pushback or sense of reason against obvious adversarial instructions.

Another user responded in the chat that slipping in a hidden mechanism to delete other people’s work was “childish” and showed “petulance beyond measure.”

"other people's work" lol

Put simply, the app would delete any projects in which it detected activity from AI coding agents, and the human developers behind the scenes would be given no warning or explanation.

Incorrect. The app detects nothing. The AI agents are the ones doing all the detection and deletion.

A developer wanting to bar their own app from being accessed by AI coding agents “is a legitimate position,” they wrote in the message board, but that legitimacy ends as soon as the work of other editors gets endangered without warning.

Other editors?

... the person who 'flagged' this... isn't a contributor to the project. jlink themself has, far and away, the vast, vast majority of commits.

This self styled 'editor', they're just somebody using freely provided code.

Also, unless I'm stupid... this seems to be a unit testing framework? Who is doing editing... with... a unit testing framework?

You test edits to a codebase with a unit testing framework... you don't... make edits with it.

Looks like somebody doesn't understand how open source liscenses or just open source development works.

Its uh, right here:

https://github.com/jqwik-team/jqwik?tab=EPL-2.0-1-ov-file

If you don't like a change, fork the previous version, or just revert to the previous version.

Or I guess literally cry about it, that is ... an option.

How much are you paying this ~~team~~ person (basically) to use their code?

Nothing?

Cool. Cry more, I guess?

This is the XKCD jenga tower meme, but the random guy in Montana gasp has preferences.

Don't like their preferences?

Do it yourself.

People who can’t code get mad when someone proves they can’t code.

How can I do this but for musicians?

Next version of this should be called 'Son of Anton'

Fuck yes.

How can I achieve this? Then, I’ll publish some GitHubs and maybe CoPilot can sweat even more cycles.

If you are using an agent that doesnt have an approval step before applying changes, you deserve this. You werent even reading the code being produced.

Let me guess: this "critic" let his LLM client do everything without limits or controls?

Sounds like its working.

Good reminder for me to go to StackExchange and poison another bit of my content there. Haven't done it in months!

When they talk about "ai agents," are they referring to the so called autonomous bots, or bots that can enter your development environment? Like openclaw.

AI losers are mad. 10/10
