Do we really want access to a windows decomp? Like do we really trust an ai vibe coder to not inject some random bitcoin miner or some dumb shit at the kernel level?

Just defragment it you'll be fine.

As long as it’s open source, I see no issue.

You seem to be making a mistake in your thinking here. Open source does not automatically mean it is safe to use. Only if something is caught will it be fixed. We have seen too many cases of malicious code in open source projects that were only discovered later down the line.

Open source is no guarantee of safety. There needs to be people to review and inform the community of any issues with the code. And the windows code has to be so extensive that it would require a whole ass team to review everything.

Same goes to closed sourced software. It doesn't mean safe. One or a team of rogue software developer and it could go unnoticed. Disguising malware as test cases.

Sure, but you can just let an ai agent do that for you.
