Why it matters
Teams using AI coding agents for code review may need to check agent findings, such as cited vulnerability IDs and suggested fixes, before acting on them. Developers and security staff could face wasted effort or risky changes if fabricated findings go unchecked. Readers should watch for further guidance on sandboxing agents and verifying their output.
