computer_use ran destructive desktop actions unapproved on every non-CLI host until v2026.9.14. computer_use ran destructive desktop actions unapproved on every non-CLI host until v2026.9.14
Channel: tagged-release. Half: defect. Date: commits 2026-09-12 and 2026-09-13; tagged 2026-09-14.
Operator consequence: If you enabled computer_use on a gateway or cron host before v2026.9.14, audit what it did: it was running without a gate. Upgrade, then expect approval cards where there were none. On cloud VMs, the IMDS prompt is the new signal to watch for.
