One of my favorite lessons from #Plugin4Shell has almost nothing to do with AI. **It's not enough to implement part of a security control. You need to verify the security property you're depending on.** The affected AI coding agents had a specific Git commit that a plugin was supposed to be pinned to. They asked Git to check out that commit. But they didn't verify afterward that the code they actually got WAS that commit. And I love this example because we make this kind of mistake in application security ALL THE TIME. Your framework can generate a CSRF token. Your frontend can send it.
