Vatio CLI — deploy and manage Vatio agent workspaces
AI Security Review
scanned 20d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiSource inspection found no install lifecycle hooks, and the flagged agent configuration write is limited to explicit `vatio init`. Transcript sharing requires `--yes` or terminal confirmation and sends to the configured Vatio API, so the scanner findings do not establish an attack.
Static reason
No blocking static signals were detected.; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source
Trigger
The project note requires `vatio init`; the skills hint is called by an explicit CLI command.
Impact
No confirmed harmful effect; the observed changes support the CLI's workspace setup and hint behavior.
Mechanism
The note adds Vatio workspace guidance to the project's AGENTS.md. The hint reads agent installation metadata and records when it was displayed under Vatio's config home.
AI rationale
Source inspection found no install lifecycle hooks, and the flagged agent configuration write is limited to explicit `vatio init`. Transcript sharing requires `--yes` or terminal confirmation and sends to the configured Vatio API, so the scanner findings do not establish an attack.
Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Clean at 97.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for AI clean decision
- The manifest exposes a CLI entry point and has no install lifecycle script.
- The project AGENTS.md note is written only by the explicit init command.
- The skills hint checks agent installation metadata and stores its display state under Vatio's config home when called from the flags command.
- Session sharing requires --yes in noninteractive use or terminal confirmation before sending.
- The transcript is sent to the configured Vatio API; the default base URL is vatio.ai.
- The entry point dispatches requested commands; the update handoff validates a release version, and the shared Git helper uses fixed arguments.
