@n_dimension can you be more specific?

Michal Kamensky: Well behaved agents seldom make history
Sounil Yu: Sounds like a lot of history will be made soon

We asked a few friends for feedback on a new tagline for Knostic:
"At Knostic, we make agents behave."

What do you think?

@dalias I prefer to see it as a positive, about power users and how embedded the technology is becoming

This is the most incredible thing I have heard this year (yet). A guy sequenced his dog's cancer DNA against her DNA, and used ChatGPT and AlphaFold to develop an individualized mRNA vaccine to save her life. The future is here. It took longer to get approval for the treatment than to develop it.

I like reading Kevin Beaumont. He’s fun.

He wrote on this better than I would have, so I’ll let the screenshot speak for itself. Can’t tag him on LinkedIn though.

And if you care to secure coding agents and what they do, check out what we do at Knostic!

Knostic is open-sourcing OpenAnt, our LLM-based vulnerability discovery product, similar to Anthropic's Claude Code Security, but free. It helps defenders proactively find verified security flaws. Stage 1 detects. Stage 2 attacks. What survives is real.

Why open source?
Since Knostic's focus is on protecting coding agents and preventing them from destroying your computer and deleting your code (not vulnerability research), we're releasing OpenAnt for free. Plus, we like open source.
...And besides, it makes zero sense to compete with Anthropic and OpenAI.

Why OpenAnt is Different:
- A "unit" in OpenAnt is some code block (e.g., function, module, etc.) along with additional metadata that allows the LLM to analyze it with the proper context.

- Adversarial reflexion: Validating vulnerabilities with constrained personas

You can just download OpenAnt, but:

- Want it managed?
If you'd like us to manage it for you, plug-and-play it into your CI/CD, leave us a note on the project page to get on the waiting list.

- Scan your open source!
Submit the form on the project page for us to scan your repo for you.

We lost FX. A lot of people wrote about this so I feel comfortable sharing here too. I’m heartbroken. We’re heartbroken.
At 8 am pacific today (Monday), we are gathering on Zoom to share memories of FX, as a community. Ping me for a link.
