> None of the issues go away just because it's in chat?

There is a wast difference in risk between me clicking a button provided by Claude in my Claude chat, on the basis of conversations I have had with Claude, and clicking a random button on a random website. Both can contain a malicious. One is substantially higher risk. Separately, linking a UI constructed this way up to an agent and let third parties interact with it, is much riskier to you than to them.

In that scenario, the UI elements are irrelevant barring a buggy implementation (yes, I've read the rest, see below), as you can achieve the same things as you can do that way with just presenting the user with a basic link and telling them to press it.

> as transported/renderered/etc by NxM combinations of implementations (there are 4 renderers and a bunch of transports right now), is not going to have security issues, i've got a bridge to sell you.

I very much doubt we'll see many implementations that won't just use a web view for this, and I very much doubt these issues will even fall in the top 10 security issues people will run into with AI tooling. Sure, there will be bugs. You can use this argument against anything that requires changes to client software.

But if you're concerned about the security of clients, mcp and hooks is a far bigger rats nest of things that are inherently risky due to the way they are designed.
