Oh, yeah. I gave Claude sudo on my AI dev machine: it commits, pushes, checks the results of pre-push tests, sudos to another user, deploys, checks the results of smoke tests, and then checks the end result.
It also has MCP access to Cloudflare. Front-end deploys on every push to main but Claude can adjust the pipeline, add environmental variables, etc.
This almost reads like parody.
Why? It sounds like a pretty typical workflow to me.
It just depends on what you are building. Some things are more more forgiving to muck-ups than others and if the LLM screws the pooch, oh well! Roll forward.
That sounds like a problem waiting to happen.
All IT infrastructure is a problem waiting to happen. I have backups and a rollback mechanism.
That's like not putting protective guardrail on a staircase, and instead having first aid kits and emergency phone number on hand. In other words, dumb and irresponsible. Possibly illegal, depending on the case.
I hope you never handle other people's data.
