The prompt issue:

The LLM sends it to websites:

I bet it's just one of the prompt injections that lots of AI models exists nowadays. There are some of them that we don't realize yet. The safety and alignment problem is getting more and more important as model capability increases.

I get that Claude wants to know the user and have all the context, but this seems like a bad decision by the LLM that should have been caught in Auto Approve mode.

Anthropic is at fault here.
We should be able to configure these. The LLM has no right to know my email address, only their internal system needs it.
