Cursor Plugins, Portable Agent Harnesses, and Securing AI Coding Workflows

Today's developer ecosystem is moving rapidly toward composable, agentic environments. We analyze official Cursor Plugins, check out VAEN's isolated execution harnesses, and address a critical supply-chain security flaw where coding agents hallucinate and install malicious dependencies. Plus, discover how to use Stop Slop to clean up generated documentation, and why hyper-niche single-user apps built with Claude represent a massive monetization opportunity.
