Risk explanation

Connects to production systems (databases, Stripe, workspace APIs) and stores credentials encrypted locally — scope each connector deliberately and keep .env plus backups private and out of git; Single-user app with no sign-in: anyone who can reach it controls every workspace, so keep it on 127.0.0.1 and never forward its ports; Very young project (created 2026-10-07, no releases yet); first run downloads several GB and local AI wants a 16 GB-class machine; not hands-on tested.
