Kimi K2.6 cleans macOS app leftovers

A Reddit post shows Kimi K2.6 acting like a desktop agent that finds and removes macOS app files, including stray ~/.appname directories and other leftovers. The author says they improved the workflow by teaching the model to avoid slow recursive find calls in favor of top-level glob matching.

// ANALYSIS

The interesting part is not the uninstall task itself, but the fact that users are already turning agent behavior into durable operating knowledge. That is the difference between a flashy demo and a system people will actually keep using.

–The post shows Kimi running shell commands to clean up app artifacts across multiple locations, which is a practical test of agentic tool use
–The author explicitly fed back a performance issue, then updated the agent’s base knowledge, which is a nice example of human-in-the-loop refinement
–The mention of `~/.appname` directories is a reminder that “uninstalling” on macOS often means hunting down hidden state, not just dragging an app to the trash
–This also doubles as a soft endorsement of open, controllable agent stacks: small codebase, voice input, and editable behavior matter as much as raw model capability

Lirix warns of AI agent prompt injections

Web3 security project Lirix shared its weekly update highlighting the intersection of AI prompt injection vulnerabilities and on-chain execution risks. The update references Gravitee's "State of AI Agent Security 2026" report, which notes that 88% of organizations have experienced AI agent security or privacy incidents, highlighting the critical need for deterministic, zero-trust gateways to secure autonomous AI agents in decentralized finance.

Mint introduces an AI-powered web service that automatically extracts individual furniture and decor from a single image and converts them into textured 3D models.

Mint (mint.gg) has launched an AI-driven web service that automatically segments and extracts individual objects from a single image—such as a photo of a room—and generates them as distinct 3D models. In addition to single-image extraction, the platform supports generating 3D Gaussian Splats from Google Street View URLs or standard images for interactive browser-based environments. To streamline workflows, Mint provides a dedicated Blender integration (mint-blender-addon) to directly import generated assets into 3D scenes. The service offers a 7-day free trial (requires credit card) with monthly plans starting at $20/month.
