Ask HN: Do you trust AI agents with API keys / private keys?

I share with gemini, claude and openai.

If I get my stuff hacked (because I use a machine with nothing else on it other than coding agents) I'll know these services are not removing my personal info from their logs.

I don't operate chinese models where my high value api keys are.

It's pretty hard to debug stuff without using real api keys, service accounts etc...otjerwise
