If it’s to be trusted, it has nothing to do with the “agent” or what’s sent to the LLM. The harness will just straight up package the folder it’s run from and upload it to Google Cloud Storage.

Even if there is a misunderstanding who is really uploading the directory, the TUI/CLI itself by actual code, or if the model decided to do so in the session, if you apply the recommendations from the replies to parent, and it no longer matter who did it, neither the software nor the model will be able to upload all your ssh keys.

		No I disagree. A harness reading a file is a tool call and it happens locally, which means that I can control it. I can configure that I need to permit any file reads and now I _should_ have control of what is sent. The difference between that and silently uploading my entire working directory in the background is miles apart IMO. I understand that one should think carefully about how they work with a non-deterministic tool, but this if different completely. This is xAI just choosing to upload and store everyone’s directories - with full git history.
