The solution is proxy everything. The agent doesn't have an api key, or yoyr actual credit card. It has proxies of everything but the actual agent lives in a locked box.
Control all input out of it with proper security controls on it.
While not perfect it aleast gives you a fighting chance when your AI decides to send a random your SSN and a credit card to block it.
Unfortunately I don't think this works either, or at least isn't so straightforward.
Claude code asks me over and over "can I run this shell command?" and like everyone else, after the 5th time I tell it to run everything and stop asking.
Maybe using a credit card can be gated since you probably don't make frequent purchases, but frequently-used API keys are a lost cause. Humans are lazy.

Who knew it'd be so simple.
