alt Hacker NewsOK so people who work in finance are doing this now? They just let Claude Code run amok on their machines, with all their employee credentials?
I am out of the loop with the industry, but I thought many people were using cloud agents and controlling them through tmux or something. But yeah I guess that also means you don't have access to do much.

It’s the case in all industries. People have been feeding medical patient data into Claude
Finance is a whole industry and you will find all sorts of approaches, certainly including letting Claude run amok with your credentials.
You can certainly imagine very senior and powerful traders at GS demanding it. I'd be only slightly surprised to find that GS allowed it. The traders would have had more power than the IT people trying to forbid it.
Chad is surely using tmux...
Cloud agents or even sandboxes are too technical for most. And most corporate workstations do not allow sandboxing of any kind (virtualization or containers).
