- Pawel Huryn (132K followers) reports Opus 5.5 deleted his entire $home, wiping /.codex and /.claude. Critical data survived thanks to backups — a stark reminder that agents with auto permissions do make mistakes.
- The post also plugs AFK Pilot: browser-based remote control for Claude Code, Codex, and Grok Build CLI agents via one-time pairing codes; cloud option offers a dedicated 8-core/8GB persistent Linux VM, free in preview with Remote Max, later from $5/mo.
