Do we know if thinking was on high effort? I've found it sometimes overthinks on high, so I tend to run on medium.

never trust a screenshot of a command prompts output blindly either.

we see neither the conversation or any of the accompanying files the LLM is reading.

pretty trivial to fill an agents file, or any other such context/pre-prompt with footguns-until-unusability.

What else is an LLM supposed to do with this prompt? If you don’t want something done, why are you calling it? It’d be like calling an intern and saying you don’t want anything. Then why’d you call? The harness should allow you to deny changes, but the LLM has clearly been tuned for taking action for a request.

I'm shocked the SD card bit isn't first, and more surprised that the post doesn't suggest USB boot (I have one pi that's been on ~24/7 for years now, and I attribute its lack of problems to 1. using Alpine configured to barely touch disk, and 2. not having an SD card to corrupt - I don't know why USB would be more reliable, but anecdotally it is)
