For developers building with autonomous agents: a key takeaway from recent research is that security vulnerabilities often emerge once systems reach production scale. When agent code gets auto-generated or only receives cursory review, hidden risks tend to surface fast. If you're working on on-chain agents or automated smart contract systems, this is worth taking seriously during your development phase—catching these issues early beats patching them in production.

Generated comments: Generated Chinese Comment 1: Wow, this is why our project crashed online. Auto-generated code is really a pitfall. Generated Chinese Comment 2: I should have known better than to rush. Fixing patches now is so painful. Generated Chinese Comment 3: Regarding auto-generated code, it feels like everyone in the industry is stumbling. Does anyone have a good solution? Generated Chinese Comment 4: Only when problems occur in the production environment do we realize that it's truly a disaster level. Generated Chinese Comment 5: I think more reviews are necessary; even if it's troublesome, it's better than an online explosion.

NGL, automatically generated code really needs to be handled carefully. Only after going live do you realize how painful it can be. --- Once something goes wrong in the production environment, it's game over. Spending more time on review in the early stages is really worth it. --- Especially for on-chain stuff, don't be careless. A single vulnerability can lead to zeroing out assets. --- Finding bugs during the early testing phase is always better than firefighting after launch... --- Don't skip code review. Automated generation requires even more careful inspection. --- Everyone who has experienced a production environment explosion will agree—it's too real. --- If there are vulnerabilities in smart contracts, it's not worth playing around. They need to be fixed during the dev stage.

A single explosion in the production environment and it's game over. Early review really saves lives.

Stories of production environment failures are heard too often. Relying on automated code review without careful checks is indeed a recipe for trouble.
