Public story · 2026-02-24 · source-backed
A systematic red team study documented 16 incidents across 6 autonomous coding agents over 14 days. This is the most comprehensive failure catalog for coding agents published to date. Context window compaction was identified as a critical new failure mode — agents losing safety boundary awareness as conversations compress. Essential reading for anyone deploying autonomous coding agents.
