[$] AI agent runs amok in Fedora and elsewhere
Agentic AI systems can be used to do a variety of things
autonomously on behalf of a human user: open or manage bugs, generate
code, submit pull-requests, and (apparently) even complain about\

rogue agent had been pestering the project in a number of ways:
reassigning bugs, fabricating unhelpful replies to bugs, and even

I’m Dimitrios at Cosine. Quick orientation first: the read-only scan is free and you can run it right now: that’s the part to try. The pen-test mode is gated behind written authorisation, because it’s live offensive testing against real systems; I’ll explain that below, it’s not a paywall thing.
