Dev log
What we build with AI agents, what broke, and the check that now stops it. Written from our real work records, one post a week.
October 29, 2026Exit 0, nothing saved: your AI agent's shell is not your terminal
Our agent ran our save command, got exit 0 and reported "saved". Nothing was saved. Two shell defaults stacked, and a month later the same gap broke a scheduled job. What we check now.
October 27, 2026Our AI agent re-leaked a secret while writing up the last leak
Twice in one day, the agent that was fact-checking our record of a leak leaked again. Why a rule could not stop it, and the commit-time check that does.
