Your agents, your permissions

PandaCode runs coding agents, bots, virtual machines, cloud sandboxes and deploys on your behalf. They act with the permissions you grant: they can read and change files, run commands, spend money with your providers and send data to other services as part of a task.

Review what you allow, especially with full access, keep backups, and check changes before you ship them. Third-party agents, models and services have their own terms, which apply when you use them.
