What it can access
- An AI agent decides its own next steps and calls whatever tools you give it, so its risk depends on the access you grant.

- Read the tool list or scripts before the first run, and keep approval prompts on for actions that write, send or delete.
- Maintained by operand on GitHub, 489 stars and 28 forks. Popularity is not proof of safety.
- Last code change: Jun 10, 2026.
- Open-source license: MIT.
