I really like Clawdbots safety gloves off approach - no handholding or just saying yes to every permission.

I set it up on a old macbook pro I had that had a broken screen and it works great. Now I just message my server using telegram and it does research for me, organizes my notes, and builds small apps on the fly to help with learning.

However security is a real concern. I need to understand how to create a comprehensive set of allowlists before expanding into anything more serious like bill payments or messaging people / etc

You know that's the easier and more careless thing to implement. You're flattering someone being reckless

But prompt injection is still a thing though. Remember the lethal trifecta..
