Before you install Scout

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.
- Based on its description and topics, it likely needs to control a web browser (visit sites, fill in and submit forms).
Before you install
- Run it in a separate browser profile without your logged-in accounts.
- 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 outcrawlai on GitHub, 948 stars and 32 forks. Popularity is not proof of safety.
- Last code change: Nov 1, 2026.
- Open-source license: Apache-2.0.
