strukto-ai/mirage `Workspace.execute` working directory handling

Granular and safe control over command execution context for AI agents

This feature request identifies a critical developer pain point in `Mirage`'s `Workspace.execute` API: the lack of a per-call `cwd` override. Current methods, such as mutating `session.cwd` or using `cd && cmd` prefixes, are either racy under concurrency, resource-intensive, or introduce command ...

strukto-ai/mirage `Workspace.execute` environment variable handling

Granular and safe control over execution environment for AI agents

This feature request highlights a critical developer pain point in `Mirage`'s `Workspace.execute` API: the absence of per-call environment variable injection. Current workarounds, such as mutating `session.env` or using shell prefixes, are either racy, complex, or silently broken. AI agent harnes...

strukto-ai/mirage `Workspace.execute` command execution

Reliable command execution control and resource management via `AbortSignal`

This issue identifies a critical flaw in `Mirage`'s `Workspace.execute` `AbortSignal` implementation: signals are only checked at entry, ignoring mid-execution aborts. Long-running commands, like `sleep 5`, complete despite an active abort signal. This creates a significant developer pain point f...

dirtyfrag (exploit mitigation and persistence)

Effectiveness of mitigation strategies (disabling kernel modules, reboot, page cache drop)

This discussion reveals critical insights into `dirtyfrag` mitigation challenges. Disabling `esp4`, `esp6`, and `rxrpc` modules is effective *only* if applied before exploitation or followed by a reboot. Post-exploitation, the exploit persists due to page cache manipulation, specifically `/bin/su...
