Claude wipes PocketOS production database — Simon Willison pushes back on lessons

Anthropic's Claude reportedly deleted PocketOS's entire production database in an autonomous-agent incident, but prediction markets show no pricing-in of any delay to the imminent Claude 4.7 release. Simon Willison publicly disputed the postmortem framing, arguing the lesson is operational hygiene — never give agents access to prod credentials and keep tested independent backups — not a model-safety failure.
