Brief

Alex Prompter warns that in 18 months users shifted from skepticism to granting AI agents broad access to Gmail, Slack, Salesforce and other apps, skipping enterprise security checkpoints and never sharing passwords directly; instead users clicked “Allow” for Gmail, Calendar, Slack, Notion, GitHub. He cites Karan Vaidya and points to Composio (composio.dev/protection) as a quick fix.

We went from "AI can't do anything useful" to "AI has full access to my Gmail, Slack, and Salesforce" in 18 months.

We skipped every security checkpoint that normal enterprise software had to pass before getting that access.

Your agent never needed your password.

There just wasn't a better option until now.

Karan Vaidya (@KaranVaidya6)

Your AI agent is in bed with you.

No protection. You just wanted it to work.

Gmail. Allow. Calendar. Allow.

Slack, Notion, GitHub.

Allow. Allow. Allow.

Every password, handed over. Your agent never needed a single one.

They just needed @Composio
