How to install layerfs

git clone https://github.com/Ephemeral-AI-Lab/layerfs.git

Taken from the project's README on GitHub. Check the security audit before running it.

Security audit verdict: SAFE · quality 59/100

None of the 42 rules matched — no credential harvesting, no data exfiltration, no curl-pipe-shell installer. Scanned against 42 published rules built on the SlowMist agent-security taxonomy, refreshed every 8 hours. Full audit →

The quality score combines nine heuristic checks of the repo and its README: completeness, clarity, specificity, examples, structure, agent readiness, step-by-step content, instruction quality and security notes. It rates how well the project explains itself to an agent, not the code.

About layerfs

LayerFS Ephemeral Workspaces. Durable Shared History. v0.1.6 Developer Preview: release and downloads, every measured selection, and compatibility boundary. Live Workspace state now lives in the sandbox and the Store format is unchanged; one construction worker, a bounded sandbox spool and every measured regression, waiver and declared allowance stay explicit.

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.
