The IDEsaster disclosure reveals 30+ vulnerabilities (24 CVEs) across Cursor, Copilot, Windsurf, Zed, Kiro, Roo Code, Junie, and Cline. The fundamental finding: 100% of tested AI IDEs are vulnerable because none accounts for autonomous LLM agent behavior in their threat model. Legacy IDE features (symlink resolution, extension installation, shell execution) become attack vectors when combined with prompt-injectable autonomous agents. This isn't about individual bugs — it's an architectural class failure.

— Security researcher Ari Marzouk disclosed 30+ vulnerabilities (24 CVEs) affecting Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Windsurf, Zed, Kiro, Roo Code, Junie, and Cline. The devastating finding: every tested AI IDE is vulnerable because none accounts for autonomous LLM agent behavior in th...
getagentseal/codeburn (8,922 stars, MIT, desktop v0.9.19) parses session files that coding tools already write to disk, analyzing input, output, cache-read, cache-write and web-search token counts to compute spend by model, project and activity, classifying usage into 13 task...
Roo Code announced it will archive its VS Code extension repo on May 15 and merge back into Cline, the project it originally forked from. CEO Matt Rubens said the team needs to "constantly destroy and recreate to keep up with what's newly possible." Translation: the extension...
kruzovic7/ai-data-extractor pulls chat histories from Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, Aider and Cline/Roo Code, in Python under MIT (GitHub). The fork ratio of about one in six is unusually high and suggests people are running and modifying it rather than bookmarking. No push s...
The largest available cost lever might not be the model. It might be a prompt telling the model to calm down. DietrichGebert/ponytail is a portable agent skill with a simple thesis: force coding agents toward the minimal solution. YAGNI first. Standard library before custom co...
Caveman is at 94,167 stars as a single skill for Claude Code, Codex, Gemini, Cursor, Windsurf, Cline, Copilot, and 30+ others, stripping conversational filler while keeping code, commands, and error strings byte-for-byte exact. The README's worked example compresses a 69-token...
