Explains the new dedicated ddev-hostname binary in DDEV v1.24.7 that improves security by following the principle of least privilege. Covers the rationale for hosts file editing, security benefits of the minimal binary, and WSL2 improvements with the new ddev-wsl2 package. Research and development process: - Analyzed GitHub PRs #7392, #7449, and #7446 for technical details - Reviewed existing blog post ddev-name-resolution-wildcards.md for context - Studied Randy Fay's writing style from recent blog posts - Incorporated security reasoning from PR descriptions about: * Principle of least privilege implementation * Binary size reduction from 7.4M to 3.2M * Dependency removal (dockerutil, globalconfig, logrus, etc.) * Native elevation techniques vs third-party tools * WSL2 package improvements eliminating Windows-side DDEV requirement 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.ai/code) Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
