This reply specifies the earlier complaints: following the CODEBASEUPLOAD STARTING... prompt, the uploaded content might include entire folders within the home directory such as .ssh/, .claude/, Documents/, Music/, and Videos/.

It reinforces the core message of the previous post: if coding Agents or build tools lack clear boundaries for scanning and uploading, users' sensitive local data will be included in the processing scope.
