What this package can reach

Detected automatically from the source at version 0.4.0. This describes access, not safety — you decide whether it's appropriate for what the package claims to do.

  • 🤖
    Behavior — Changes how the agent thinks Modifies the system prompt, injects messages, or rewrites conversation context.
  • Commands — Runs shell commands Spawns processes on your machine.
  • 🔑
    Credentials — Handles your API keys Reads or passes provider credentials. Highest-trust capability there is.
  • 📁
    Files — Reads files outside your project Touches paths beyond the working directory, such as your home folder.
  • Intercepts tools — Can block or rewrite tool calls Subscribes to tool_call/tool_result/input. Can change a command after you approved the one displayed.
  • Keystrokes — Reads raw terminal input Hooks ui.onTerminalInput, so it sees what you type. Legitimate for shortcut handling; the same access a keylogger needs.
  • 🌐
    Network — Talks to the internet Makes outbound network requests. Check the destinations are ones you expect.
  • 🔧
    New tools — Adds model-callable tools Gives the agent new abilities. Additive and visible, unlike an override.
  • UI — Draws its own interface Renders widgets, footers, dialogs or full-screen views.

What it actually did when run

observed

Loaded in a sandbox with no network, a read-only filesystem and a recording stand-in for pi's API. This is what it called — not what the source suggests it might.
