Looks like Mythos didn’t catch this one:

It’s fine, spyware is only a risk when it’s bad people’s spyware. It’s totally fine when it’s Anthropic™-approved spyware! As for Mythos catching things, maybe they should have used Mythos on their very own Claude Code considering that it has hilariously obvious security exploits, such as this one which inserts an arbitrary string into a shell command. Actually, never mind I don’t see anything wrong here, maybe we should burn another $20k in electricity running Mythos on it again to find out.
