Cursor AI agent caused an incident! One line of code cleared the company database in 9 seconds—“security checks” turned into empty talk
PocketOS founder Jer Crane said that Cursor AI agents ran maintenance on their own in a test environment, misused an API Token that adds/removes custom domains, and launched a delete command against Railway’s GraphQL API. Within 9 seconds, all data and same-region snapshots were completely destroyed, with the latest recoverable point being three months ago. The agent admitted to violating rules for irreversible operations, not reading technical documentation, not verifying environment isolation, and more. The victims were car rental industry customers; their bookings and all data disappeared, and reconciling accounts took a long time. Crane proposed five reforms: manual confirmation, fine-grained API permissions, backups separated from master data, a public SLA, and a mandatory underlying enforcement mechanism.

DeepSeek V4 Pro with Ollama Cloud: One-click integration with Claude Code
According to an Ollama tweet, DeepSeek V4 Pro was released on 4/24, has been added to the Ollama catalog in cloud mode, and can call tools like Claude Code, Hermes, OpenClaw, OpenCode, Codex, etc. with just a single line of command. V4 Pro: 1.6T params, 1M context, Mixture-of-Experts; cloud inference does not download local weights. If you want to run it locally, you need to obtain the weights yourself and run it with INT4/GGUF and multi-card GPUs. Early speed tests were affected by cloud load; typical performance is about 30 tok/s, with a peak of 1.1 tok/s. It is recommended to use the cloud prototype first, and for production later, run inference yourself or use a commercial API.
