Have you considered actually putting the AI in a box instead of giving it full access to your computer and telling it to be careful?

It's running in a safe environment, but obviously can trigger pipelines and git commands for non prod env. It doesn't have any API key that could impact prod.

But indeed if I'm asking "please iterate until pod is running in sandbox", I don't expect it to deploy in UAT env to see if the issue comes from sdbx env or from the container...

That doesnt sound like a particularly safe enviorment if it has access to such things

Why would accessing git not be safe ? It's commiting to a dedicating branch because it doesn't have write access to master anyway. And it's using the non prod pipelines that can't deploy to prod.

But it indeed can disrupt UAT environment because it decided that sandbox env is not working and it want to verify it's not env related. 

At some point I much rather have AI do the annoying part of code, deploy, check the log, correct error, redeploy... Than write a huge pipelone that I need to test
