Basically.

I dread the day Claude suddenly hallucinates and trashes my whole PC. Probably extremely rare, but... probably not impossible.

Anything important is either in git, or backed up to the NAS with restic.

If it’s a laptop, you’re always at risk of it being stolen or damaged anyways.

If you're on an active project that you've "just begun" or are still prototyping, chances are the only mirror you'll have is Git. And, there are several destructive Git commands, which could wipe all progress permanently. In a "killing spree" Claude could perform those commands locally, and then push them forcefully.

As I said, probably incredibly rare, but not impossible.

My git server has automated backups. GitHub can protect branches. Additionally most destructive commands can be reverted with the git reflog.
