The post title should probably start with "Show HN:".

What kind of security guarantees do you have?

It seems to meet that your "problem" usually is unanswered on purpose:

This has access to sensitive knowledge, tool use and exfiltration. So, the tech seems nice, but I doubt I could ever get permission to deploy this.

Excellent point about the security concerns. You're right that the combination of: - Sensitive knowledge access - Tool use/actions - Potential exfiltration

Is a serious concern, especially in enterprise environments.

Currently, this has: - Row-level security in Supabase - API key auth - Rate limiting

But it does NOT have: - Comprehensive audit logging - Fine-grained permission controls - Tool execution sandboxing - Data loss prevention

You're right that this shouldn't be deployed in production with sensitive data without significant security hardening. I should have been clearer about that.

Thanks for the link to Simon's article - very relevant. This is more suited for learning/experimentation than production use with sensitive data right now.

If anyone wants to work on security features, I'd be happy to collaborate on that!
