In this episode of On Rails, Jason Meller (VP of Product at 1Password) talks to Robby Russell about how Rails has become one of the most token-efficient architectures for LLM-assisted development, and why that matters as token costs increasingly shape what’s practical (and profitable) to build. They also dive into security in agentic workflows, an area getting harder to ignore. Jason breaks down what 1Password’s open-source SCAM benchmark reveals about how LLMs handle credentials, where risks emerge when models act autonomously in developer environments, and what teams can do now to stay ahead.
