Reporting Vulnerabilities

Found a security hole? Impressive. Most impressive.

DO NOT open a public issue. We don't need the Rebel Alliance knowing our weaknesses.

How to Report

Email the maintainer or use GitHub's private vulnerability reporting.

Include:

  • Description of the vulnerability
  • Steps to reproduce
  • Potential impact
  • Suggested fix (if you have one)

What Counts as a Security Issue

  • Prompt injection that breaks containment
  • Anything that leaks system prompts or internal state
  • Exploits that allow unintended system access
  • Ways to make the agent do Actually Bad Things™

What Doesn't Count

  • "The agent gave me Machiavellian advice" — that's the feature, not a bug
  • "This could be used for evil" — see above
  • "The ethics are questionable" — you're holding a tool called PALPATINE

Response Timeline

  • Acknowledgment: 48 hours
  • Initial assessment: 1 week
  • Fix (if applicable): Depends on severity

Bounties

There are none. This is a side project, not a corporation. Your reward is:

  • Credit in the changelog
  • Our eternal gratitude
  • The satisfaction of having helped

"Your overconfidence is your weakness." — Luke Skywalker "Your faith in your friends is yours." — Palpatine

Don't let overconfidence in security be ours. Report responsibly.
