Risks to watch for

  • Local file read access: Reads local documents or database files. Point it only at the specific files needed for the task so sensitive workspace files remain out of reach.
  • Dependency & version pinning: Distributed via GitHub (scarrillo/release). Pin an exact release version or commit SHA rather than floating tags so upstream updates are reviewed first.

How to lower the risk

Least-privilege permissions

  • Give it access only to the specific folders, accounts or projects it needs, never your whole drive or admin account.
  • Use a separate, limited API key or login just for this tool so you can switch it off without affecting anything else.

Network isolation

  • Run it on a work computer or sandbox account, not one holding personal or company-sensitive data.
  • If your IT team can, limit which websites and services it is allowed to contact.

Monitoring

  • Check its activity history or logs weekly at first, and look at what it changed or sent.
  • Turn on alerts for new logins or unusual usage on any account it connects to.

Red flags to watch for

  • It asks for more access than its job requires, or prompts you to paste passwords.
  • It suddenly updates with new owners, or starts contacting unfamiliar websites.
