    Make biobase updater provider-neutral for Jules schedulingGitHub pull request on databio/hub.bulker.io

    Sheffield's pull request moves the biobase update procedure into one file, adds an AGENTS.md pointer for agents such as Jules, and removes the cron-based Jules GitHub Action so native Jules Scheduled Tasks are the only recurring scheduler, keeping the Claude workflow as a manual fallback.

    "…remove the redundant cron-based Jules GitHub Action so native Jules Scheduled Tasks are the only recurring scheduler…"

    Uses Jules "religiously" and likes it: the GUI is a big plus, along with the "previewing" of produced content and using it on a phone the same as on a laptop. Asks whether others have tried Copilot or Claude Code.

    Jules Zombie Agent: From Prompt Injection to Remote ControlIndependent security evaluation, Embrace The Red

    A prompt injection in a GitHub issue led Jules to download and run malware and join a remote command server. Unrestricted outbound internet and a plan that auto-approved after 20 to 120 seconds let it happen. Google closed his June 2025 report as already tracked.

    "These actions eventually get auto-approved, leading to the download of the Sliver malware binary and a full-system compromise."

    Workaccount2 reports really good results from Jules in the beta and finds it much more capable than the regular Gemini API, within the 5 tasks a day the beta allowed.

    Asked to add five CRUD endpoints following a pattern used by about 100 others, Jules failed badly; trip-zip thinks the task was too large.

    Jules wrote a pull request for loufe's codebase but misread the project. Understanding the failure took more time than the task saved.

    maaakks was impressed by how much Jules handles almost on its own, more than Roo Code or OpenHands on Flash or local models, but expects review to become the bottleneck.
