Napoleon gave his brother Joseph, Andrew Roberts explains (in Napoleon: A Life), for not getting assassinated in Naples:
Your valets, your cooks, the guards that sleep in your apartment, the people who wake you up in the night to bring you despatches, have to be French. Nobody must ever come in during the night, except for your aide-de-camp who must sleep in a room preceding yours. Your door must be locked from the inside and you should unlock it only if you have recognized your aide-de-camp’s voice: he should only knock on your door after having locked the one of the room he sleeps in to make sure nobody has followed him and that he is alone. These precautions are important; they’re not a nuisance and as a result they generate confidence, apart from the fact that they can save your life.
I apologize for offering a link of close to zero relevance, but I get the feeling that people here like cutting-edge robots:

We could pretend that this is meant to tie into the trust of an aide-de-camp. Would you trust an android aide-de-camp to keep you from getting assassinated in Naples? Maybe.
Gaiko: An android aide-de-camp has to give better chances at not getting dragged, at least for the time being.
fragged… stupid text-to-speech.
