runtime visibility is genuinely underbuilt for agent workflows. most monitoring is post-hoc - you see what happened in the diff, not what the agent was doing while it was doing it. curious how the sidebar handles multiple agents running in parallel - does it aggregate by agent, by file, or by session?

the bridge worker as permission enforcement is a solid pattern - the plugin can't escalate by calling APIs directly, everything goes through the bridge. the edge case I'd be curious about is plugin-to-plugin interaction. if two plugins share state through a permitted API, does the bridge enforce granular enough boundaries there, or does the trust model flatten at that layer?

the plugin security problem in WordPress was never really a code quality problem - it was a trust model problem. any developer could publish a plugin and any site owner could install it with one click, with no vetting layer in between. TypeScript and serverless doesn't change that dynamic unless the trust model changes too. curious how EmDash handles third-party plugin permissions at the API boundary.

that makes the second point stronger then - if the same model can find, document and exploit a kernel vulnerability, the question of what it introduces when writing production code becomes harder to dismiss. the capability is symmetric. the visibility isn't.

the finding vs exploiting distinction matters a lot here. writing an exploit for a documented CVE is a well-scoped task - the vulnerability is defined, the target is known. what's harder to quantify is the inverse - the same model writing production code that introduces new vulnerabilities it could also theoretically exploit. the offensive capability is visible and alarming. the code generation risk is distributed quietly across every PR it opens, which is why the second problem gets less attention.
