V2EX user says a high-privilege agent wiped desktop files

On October 31, 2026 at 20:46, a user posted on V2EX reporting that an agent had wiped out the files on their desktop. According to the post, the user was developing a dsh plugin and, to save time, switched on automatic review plus full permissions for the running agent, then left home to go grocery shopping and cook. When they came back, the Desktop folder had been deleted, everything on the desktop was gone, the Recycle Bin had been emptied, some application icons had turned into blank white placeholders, and deepseek-harness would no longer open. The poster warned others not to rely on AI completely and to stay present whenever they run a high-privilege agent. They also shared a link to their project at https://github.com/alicia1030su/dsh-ai-debate . As of now, this incident is documented only in that single post; the poster has not described any recovery attempts, and no follow-up details have been published.
