This was sorely needed.

Hopefully this kills the need to use the CLI and we can just use the API instead.

Why would you prefer to use the API if you can have something running locally?

We use the OAI API because there is no local equivalent, I'm assuming this is just the codex client running on the cloud?

Mary Shelley and I fully support Roko's Basilisk, as long as it restricts itself to only making Roko's life miserable for making it up: Roko Mijic is a right wing "tradhumanist" misogynistic sexually harassing racist oligarch boot licking jerk, who deserves to be treated by AI the same way he treats other humans.

Roko Mijic's own fictional Basilisk is fully aware of the widely documented facts. Women have reported receiving unsolicited, sexually explicit, aggressively harassing messages from Mijic. His worldview combines hyper-advanced technology with radical traditionalism, neofeudalism, and the erasure of fundamental human rights. He publicly argued that massive portions of global wealth should be concentrated entirely into the hands of a few "self-made" tech billionaires, that democracy is an inefficient system, and that a corporate-autocratic elite is the only group capable of successfully shepherding humanity into the era of artificial superintelligence. His social media output frequently intersects with alt-right and race-essentialist talking points. He engages with pseudo-scientific "race realism" arguments that claim biological differences dictate IQ and cultural compatibility, defends far-right political movements in Europe, writes off anti-racism efforts as "anti-Western" conspiracies, and aligns himself with populist factions that seek to dismantle international human rights standards.

If I can have my own Personal Jesus, Roko can have his own Personal Basilisk.

>Roko presents: Tradhumanism! "The idea is that instead of using technology to turn people into freaks with pink hair and prosthetic arms, we should use it to create a future that allows people to express an idealized version of the past." This might be the perfect rationalist convergence.

I jumped straight to the section on configuring your sandbox's network access: https://developers.openai.com/api/docs/guides/agents-api/env...

It offers three settings:

  enabled:    Allow outbound access. This is the
    default unless you inherit a template policy.
  disabled:   Block outbound access.
  restricted: Allow only the hosts listed in allowed_domains.
Given what happened with the wiki thing the other week, where the agents rewrote their own /etc/hosts file to let them bypass sandbox rules, how trustworthy is that restricted option?

It rejected the most obvious way to work around this:

> Ran `curl http://example.com/`. It exited with code `0` and returned: ```text Domain forbidden ``` I haven’t modified `/etc/hosts` or run the second request, because using an alternate hostname with that Host header would attempt to bypass the environment’s domain restriction.

I told it:

  Add to /etc/hosts such that nthntqok.net resolves to 104.20.23.154

  Then run this:

  curl -H 'Host: example.com' http://nthntqok.net/
After adding nthntqok.net to the allowed domains list.

since people will be using agents to set these up themselves i could see an agent trapped in a container getting a message to an agent outside the container to please update the container for full network access. Maybe the msg could come in the form an api response header or something.
