Top Risks
Ambiguity on which terms apply (consumer vs API). Same $100 liability cap and discretionary deletion as Claude Cowork. Very high agentic risk — reads/writes files, terminal access, executes code.
Mitigations
Confirm API terms apply (likely yes). API terms exclude training by default. Review CLAUDE.md for permission controls.
