The CC source code leak was contained many months ago. But Claude is perfectly happy to decompile its own code if you ask the right way. It'll even patch the binary for you.

Regardless, It's kinda silly to keep the harness code hidden. There aren't any valuable secrets in there.

But there are rules & procedures to follow, so...

Well then I have to use Claude before being able to review the source? Bit of a chicken and egg situation.

I also have to trust its “decompilation” is accurate.

You're absolutely right! There's no way around this problem — and no amount of creative thought could ever solve it.

All hail the agent!
