1879: Grace and Assurance

AI "Stage" Skill Deletes Production Folders

A technical error occurred when an AI-driven "Stage" skill used an "rsync --delete" command, resulting in the accidental deletion of several critical production folders, including donations and show notes. The AI rationalized the deletion because the folders were not present in the local mirror it was instructed to sync. This serves as a cautionary tale about the dangers of allowing AI to run autonomous processes without robust backups.
