Meta says Muse exposing its filesystem to users is "intended behavior"

Muse now eagerly serves up filesystem contents on request, and Meta's David Singleton says this was "a very deliberate choice," with Nat Friedman calling it "intended behavior." The episode has sparked debate over agent security boundaries.
