Named why agents can't be trusted by default
Willison's "lethal trifecta" — private data, exposure to untrusted content, and the ability to communicate externally — is the cleanest case anyone has made that trustworthy agents require governance and verification by construction, not bolted on after. His markdown-as-source, own-your-tooling workflows and the LLM CLI are Tropo's governed vault in miniature, built from the practitioner's bench.
