What if a simple documentation file could try to give commands to your coding assistant?

What if a simple documentation file could try to give commands to your coding assistant?

This is not science fiction: the episode explains the risk of prompt injection. Tools like Cursor connect a model to files, repositories, extensions, and sometimes external servers. If the agent treats untrusted text as a valid command, it could use tools in a way the developer did not intend.

That is why security does not depend on the model alone: it also requires tight permissions, isolation, action logging, and human review. The key rule is simple: a comment inside the repository should not have the same power as a developer instruction.

AI can help you code, but it should never receive more access than necessary.
