None of that helps if you grant the LLM access to the production database and it decides to drop table user; to free up some space. That’s when you find out if your database recovery process actually works. You do have database backups, right? Or is that not a thing when vibe coding?

My friend and I set up Kopia in our home labs.

About a week later we decided to test out a disaster recovery only to discover we’d screwed up the permissions and nothing was backing up properly.

Was a relatively easy fix since we caught it, but I share this cautionary tale to remind you all to test your backups regularly!
