Рентген для нейросетей, или как я перестал понимать собственный ИИ и написал свой APM

Бывало у вас такое: месяцами пилишь архитектуру, фичи летят одна за другой, тесты зелёные. Всё работает. А потом в какой-то момент ловишь себя на мысли: «Черт, я вообще перестал понимать, как эта штука работает». Именно это произошло со мной во время разработки PAD+ AI.

The password manager says Claude never sees the password or one-time code. Instead, users approve each request, and 1Password injects the credentials directly into the target website while locking down access to the rest of the vault.
