It adds a post edit verification gate, weakened test detection, git safety snapshots, and refusal of unrequested commits or pushes, but the sandbox is off by default and small local models still fail many tasks…
Upstash ran seven coding agents through live Redis tasks and found agents couldn't enable daily backups, probed Redis logs that don't exist, read 0 stats right after traffic, and deleted a named database with no confirmation. After adding redis set daily backup , clearer tool text, and a type the name delete check, backups went from 0/15 to 15/15 and delete confirmation from 1/15 to 15/15…
