How to install Toolio

pip install toolio
pip install -U toolio[tools]

Taken from the project's README on GitHub.

Security audit verdict: SAFE · quality 69/100

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.

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 Toolio

♪ Come along and ride on a fantastic voyage 🎵, with AI riding shotgun seat and a flatbed full of tools. Toolio is an OpenAI-like HTTP server API implementation which supports structured LLM response generation (e.g. make it conform to a JSON schema). It also implements tool calling by LLMs. Toolio is based on the MLX framework for Apple Silicon (e.g.

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.
