Shai-Hulud doesn't break into your build. It gets installed.
Then it reads whatever credentials are lying around and ships them off.

You can't afford "works on my machine" friction across humans, agents, local dev and production workflows. @resolveai is one of the most exciting AI companies building right now, and I'm proud @floxdevelopment is part of their foundation. (magics of @nixos_org )

Dev containers or Nix-style environments? You don't have to choose.
Language, libraries, build tools, and CLIs run on the host (Flox, Nix, Guix). Backing services run in containers. One pattern, local → CI → prod.
