  > if you accidentally run the wrong command in sudo I'm not seeing your point. Are you saying that I shouldn't use sudo because I might accidentally "run the wrong command"? I know all the commands that I run and what they do. > your kernel is not isolate Am I more afraid of an npm package exploiting a zero day kernel vulnerability on my mac? Or just stealing my AWS keys and installing a crypto miner? Sudo suits my threat model just fine. My m3 MacBook pro is a million times more powerful dev machine than a cheap $5 vps. Why would I waste my time with that.

      My Claude runs as a limited user account, which I invoke using sudo. Claude can run whatever commands it wants and the only harm it can do is nuke its own home directory. That's the whole point.

        They weren't getting that sudo was just your mechanism for changing user.
