Vatio CLI — deploy and manage Vatio agent workspaces
AI Security Review
scanned 20d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiSource inspection found no install hooks or concrete attack behavior. Agent-related file changes are tied to explicit CLI commands, and session upload is gated by user confirmation or an explicit yes.
Static reason
No blocking static signals were detected.; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source
Trigger
The setup note is written when a user runs `vatio init`; the skills hint runs from selected improve commands.
Impact
No unconsented install-time mutation, hidden credential transfer, or other concrete attack was established.
Mechanism
The setup command adds Vatio workspace guidance to AGENTS.md, while the hint records its display state in its own cache.
AI rationale
Source inspection found no install hooks or concrete attack behavior. Agent-related file changes are tied to explicit CLI commands, and session upload is gated by user confirmation or an explicit yes.
Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Clean at 94.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for AI clean decision
- package.json declares the CLI entrypoint and dependency but no install lifecycle hook.
- The CLI routes `init` to workspace setup, which writes a Vatio note to AGENTS.md only when that command runs.
- The skills hint reads installed skill metadata and writes its own hint cache; it is called from an explicit improve command.
- Session sharing is an explicit CLI command; it offers a save-to-file path and requires confirmation or an explicit yes before sending.
- The session upload sends a bearer token to the configured API base URL; the source sets Vatio as the default and allows an explicit environment or config override.
- Other indicated CLI locations show normal command reporting and a retry limited to a claimed-trial error; the child process helper runs fixed git arguments.
