- Based on its description and topics, it likely needs to read and write files on your machine.
- Based on its description and topics, it likely needs to act on cloud infrastructure.
Before you install
- Point it at one project folder, never your home directory.
- Use a role with only the permissions it needs, never an admin key.
- Pin the version you reviewed instead of always installing the latest release.
- Read the tool list or scripts before the first run, and keep approval prompts on for actions that write, send or delete.
- Maintained by arcboxlabs on GitHub, 4,257 stars and 185 forks. Popularity is not proof of safety.
