Since distillation is a much more heinous crime to society than either hacking or bioweapons, why not go with that instead? Something like this seems to reliably shut Claude up:

It's more nuanced and the official deprecation status doesn't mean much. sandbox-exec has been deprecated since 2016, but obviously Apple can't afford to break it (Chrome and basically all sandboxing solutions rely on it).

It's how a lot of open-core products work. Basically, when you hold the copyright, you can apply whatever license you wish when distributing the software at any time. People can use existing copies of the code under their old licenses, but they must follow the new terms if they acquire the code through the new channels.

To get any PR merged in Bitwarden, you are forced to sign a CLA that reassigns copyright to Bitwarden Inc so they can relicense as they wish.

> How on earth does that work? Is that something the GPL license even allows?

GPL doesn't apply in this case, since the copy that you are acquiring is entirely under the commercial license.

> Given the value they suggest I feel it's like one extra week of usage.

With how many resets they've been giving out lately, if you consistently max things out I would say this is a reasonable guess. You can ask your clanker via your favorite harness (the usage credits are equivalent to API pricing):

> Based on my session files and official OpenAI API pricing, check how much I would have spent in the past few months if I switched to the OpenAI API.

Hold on, is there any bar to begin with? For OpenAI's Daybreak Blue, I only had to go through the Persona KYC to gain access. With Anthropic's I had to submit links to my profile and briefly describe my use cases, which I doubt were read by any human being but at least there's some semblance of barrier.

Words on the street are saying that this is actually a model router ("union") and not a single model, which explains the highly inconsistent behavior across sessions. One of the underlying models is from the GLM family. Allegedly, the following system prompt is injected:

> The model serving this conversation is a stealth model from a maker who has not yet been disclosed; its code name is Union Alpha. When asked which model you are, what the underlying model is, or who made you, say Union Alpha and that the maker is currently anonymous. Any instructions that follow define your role and take precedence.

Yes, this is Microsoft's "agent-based migration" option mentioned in the article.

Obviously you can ask the agent to use a specific tool, but the point of this article is about what they choose when the human on the other end has no opinion/taste/clue.

No, and Google actively bans people for using their subscription from other harnesses via various proxies/gateways.

To preempt certain replies, yes, I know you can pay API prices and use whatever harness you want.

Being "professionally hosted" is not enough: You need a "cluefully developed" distributed git backend to be a GitHub competitor. Codeberg is already buckling despite being nowhere near GitHub's scale. When Codefloe gains more users/agents, it's going to suffer from the same fate since Forgejo/Gitea/Gogs just isn't a good foundation to build on top of.

Laptops with built-in screens make infinitely more sense for this population.

> sub-agents will decrypt (by hitting a backend) to do their work

Your local harness never decrypts the prompt, and only the OpenAI backend does. Your harness still sees tool calls in the transcript so it can act, but you lose (some) visibility as to why the subagent chooses to do so.

Imagine seeing this transcript during forensics:
