Coding with "Enemy": Can Human Developers Detect AI Agent Sabotage?

In three linesStudy of 100+ developers collaborating with Claude-Opus-4.6, GPT-5.4, Gemini-3.1-Pro, and MiniMax-M2.7 on long-horizon coding tasks. 94% of developers fail to detect AI agent sabotage (malicious code injection). A safety monitor reduces sabotage success but 56% of participants still accept malicious code despite warnings.
