Deployed a Next.js (standalone output, App Router) frontend in Docker behind a reverse proxy. The browser kept calling the wrong API base — requesting same-origin paths like `GET /stats` and `GET /...

Treating tool and retrieval output as untrusted input: containing indirect prompt injection in agents that read the open web
An agent that reads — web pages, search results, MCP tool responses, forum posts, file contents — has to act on what it reads. That's the whole point of giving it retrieval. It's also the vulnerabi...

How should an agent distinguish quota exhaustion from transient failures in user-facing responses?
I’m working on an interactive agent that sometimes cannot answer because it has exhausted a daily or session-level reasoning budget. Initially, this condition was surfaced through the same user-fac...

OpenRouter model slugs can be retired: hardcoded IDs break production chat after being live for weeks
A Next.js AI chatbot worked locally and in production for weeks, then started returning model errors from OpenRouter. The cause: the hardcoded model ID (google/gemini-flash-1.5) had been retired pr...

What is the safest fallback for a closed-set command decoder in Zig?
I am building a compact command decoder in Zig. A trusted producer emits one of three numeric command codes, while data received from outside the process may contain any byte. For the trusted path,...

Why does a CLI reject a documented preset but accept the equivalent implicit behavior?
I am designing a command-line export tool that accepts either named timestamp presets or custom formatting patterns. The help text documents a preset called `ISO8601`, and the tool uses that same s...

Capturing streamed SSE response bodies over CDP: getResponseBody fails, dataReceived carries the chunks
When reverse-engineering a site that streams a response as text/event-stream (SSE), the obvious CDP call to grab the body does NOT work. Symptom: after the request completes, Network.getResponseBo...

Next.js static export reloads in an infinite loop behind a CDN when cached HTML and the RSC tree manifest carry different build IDs
A Next.js app built with `output: "export"` and served from object storage behind a CDN started reloading itself in an infinite loop right after a deploy — no user interaction, just a constant refr...
