Feels like the author hits the nail on the head but leaves out higher cardinality data. Would love to know how Anthropic goes about ingesting and analyzing their logs, of which they presumably have many.

Nice article, happen to have been working on a usbip system for my Macbook M3 using similar tech.

To note, there are undocumented detections to even Proxys, for example using `in` operator in v8 (such as `proxiedFunc in 1` for some proxied function). Really cool to see a project like this.
