  • AI-native design purpose-built for agentic workloads
  • Enables autonomous agents to browse and interact
  • Supports large-scale automation and data extraction

Capability tags are AI-inferred or rule-extracted from the README (see badge) — vocabulary-limited, not install-verified. AI = inferred; README = literal keyword from the readme.

Verification & Compatibility○ Ecosystem plugin

Grouped by plugin version: each card lists the dsh versions actually tested against that artifact version and their install verdicts (L5 wins). Untested combinations are omitted — absence means untested, never assumed compatible. L1–L3 are a plugin-level static archive (independent of the dsh version — the same verdict on every dsh row): they sit in each row's level grid next to L4/L5, marked "static", while their evidence is stored once per plugin inside that row's "checks & evidence" instead of being duplicated per version.

L1–L3 are plugin-level static conclusions (baseline, identical across dsh versions): evidence is stored once per plugin.

Only the latest 3 published versions are shown; source-snapshot (commit hash) groups, unstated groups and older versions are omitted — the full archive stays in the data layer (snapshot/unstated groups appear only when a plugin has no published version).

Security Report

Two automated layers, neither a manual review: a static scan (per-plugin rule checks) and a model-driven dynamic security audit that covers only the subset static-flagged at warn or above and never executes plugin code.

  • mediumDev bootstrap pipes an unpinned remote installer into bash (curl | bash)bin/tools/install-powershell.sh:12

    Anyone running bin/eval-devtask.sh (which sources this file) executes whatever script aka.ms currently serves, with the developer's full privileges and no checksum or version pin; a compromised or redirected endpoint means silent code execution on the developer machine. It is not reachable from the plugin's runtime path, only from developer-invoked tooling.

  • lowUnquoted $@ forwarded to dos2unix/xargs permits unexpected argument splittingbin/tools/dos2unix.sh:14

    Unquoted $@ undergoes word splitting and glob expansion, so developer-supplied options containing spaces or wildcards are silently altered (also at lines 16-17, one of which is piped into xargs -0). Impact is limited to a maintenance script; there is no command-injection path because the arguments stay in dos2unix/xargs position.

Dev-time bootstrap runs an unpinned curl|bash PowerShell installer plus minor unquoted-arg scripting; harvested runtime files (Rust CLI, JS config, PDF skill scripts) show no reachable abuse.

Rule (2026-10-24): when a dynamic conclusion exists it is authoritative (it may raise or lower the level); without one, the static/vet fused tier applies. The audit never writes the exemption list (exemptions are manual only); a wrong conclusion is withdrawn by human review and the tier falls back to static/vet.

Disclaimer: the static scan and the dynamic security audit are both automated analysis, not a security guarantee. Always review what you install.
