How to install kowalski

git clone https://github.com/yarenty/kowalski.git && cd kowalski

Taken from the project's README on GitHub.

Security audit verdict: SAFE · quality 68/100

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 kowalski

Kowalski "Kowalski, analysis!" Hordes of small AI agents that do real work on your machine. Kowalski is one binary: download it, answer three setup questions, and give your spreadsheets, pages and documents to a horde. The answers come back as files you can open: a report workbook, a morning brief, a note with deadlines.

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.
