Pawel Huryn reports Opus 5.5 wiped his entire $home under auto permissions, deleting /.codex and /.claude — a stark reminder that agents with auto-approve make irreversible mistakes. He also promotes AFK Pilot, a tool for remotely steering Grok/Codex/Claude Code from any browser, plus cloud VMs with agents preinstalled (free preview, from $5/mo).
