Outside the Prompt: measuring where AI coding agents trust repositories, tools and connectors
Preprint (Zenodo + arXiv), then submission to a peer-reviewed software engineering journal. Built from the four-part blog series; the preregistration was deposited on 11 October 2026, before the remaining measurements. Next parts: part 3 on 20 Oct, part 4 on 27 Oct.
Outside the Prompt — reproducible lab harness
Harmless canary MCP server, test-repository generator, read-only checks and the runner used to measure eight coding-agent clients (six with the automated runner, two by hand). 18 automated tests; every evidence file hashed with SHA-256. Also holds the preregistration's dated deviations log and the classification pilot. Current version v0.2.1, 13 Oct 2026 (DOI 10.5281/zenodo.23341303; corrections after an external review); the DOI above always resolves to the latest version.
