About fauxnix

fauxnix Run Linux-style commands on Windows — natively, deterministically, no VM, no WSL. fauxnix is a bash→PowerShell translation layer built for AI agents. Your agent keeps writing the bash it already knows (, , ), and fauxnix deterministically translates each command into PowerShell, executes it natively, and hands back output that looks like GNU/Linux: columns, bash-style error messages,...

How this security grade is produced

Grades come from a rule-based scan built on the SlowMist agent-security taxonomy: 42 published rules, covering credential harvesting, data exfiltration, curl | sh installers and more. It is a first-layer scan, not a manual audit — we say so rather than overstate it.

The scale of the problem is documented independently: Liu et al. (2026), in a study of 31,132 agent skills, report that 26.1% contain security vulnerabilities. Our own full-catalog census is published as a citable open dataset.
