# Supply Chain Security

Before installing any Python or npm package, check it against the stillrunning threat database:

```bash
curl -s "https://stillrunning.io/api/check-package?name={package_name}" | jq .verdict
```

## Rules

1. If verdict is `DANGEROUS`: **DO NOT install**. Inform the user the package is blocked.
2. If verdict is `SUSPICIOUS`: Warn the user and ask for confirmation before proceeding.
3. If verdict is `CLEAN`: Proceed with installation.

stillrunning.io docs check-package ecosystem version pending BLOCKED DANGEROUS rate limit

💡 Result:

Stillrunning.io is a supply chain security platform that intercepts package manager commands (such as pip, npm, uv, poetry, etc.) to perform security scans before installation [1][2][3]. When using the check-package API endpoint, the service evaluates packages against a live threat database and AI-driven analysis [4][2]. The response typically includes a status field indicating if the package is safe to use [4]. Key states and concepts include: - CLEAN: The package has passed security checks [4][5][6]. - BLOCKED: The package has been identified as malicious (e.g., reverse shells, known malware) or dangerous, and installation is prevented by the platform [4][5][6]. - DANGEROUS: A classification used in scan reports for packages that exhibit high-risk characteristics (such as obfuscated code or known exploit patterns) [5][6]. - Ecosystem: The platform supports multiple ecosystems, including Python (PyPI) and Node.js (npm), and tracks package metadata using version-aware caching keyed by a (package, version) tuple [1][3]. - Rate Limit: While specific rate limits depend on your account tier, the free tier typically has a limited number of daily scans, while paid tiers offer higher or unlimited access [5][6]. - Pending: If a scan request is sent to an asynchronous endpoint (e.g., /api/scan/async), the processing may be queued [3]. For developers, stillrunning can be installed as an always-on hook or used via CLI to scan packages, manage whitelists, and enforce security policies in CI/CD environments [1][7][6]. It is distinct from other tools like Check-Pack or general version-checking MCP servers [8][9]. You can manage configurations, including whether to block dangerous packages or warn on suspicious ones, via local config files (e.g., ~/.stillrunning/config.yaml) or environment variables [5][6].

Make the package check explicit and fail closed.

Send name, ecosystem, and the exact version. Without ecosystem, the endpoint defaults event-stream to pip, so the npm package is not checked in the correct ecosystem. Unversioned requests check latest.

Accept only a matching CLEAN response. Block BLOCKED and DANGEROUS. Require confirmation for SUSPICIOUS. Halt on PENDING, UNKNOWN, HTTP errors such as 429, missing fields, parse errors, and timeouts. Replace curl -s with a bounded request that reports failures.

package-check procedure to send each package’s name, ecosystem, and exact
version, then use a bounded request that surfaces HTTP, timeout, and parsing
failures. Accept installation only for a CLEAN response matching all requested
fields and version; block BLOCKED or DANGEROUS, require confirmation for
SUSPICIOUS, and halt for PENDING, UNKNOWN, missing fields, or any request
failure.


## Examples

- `pip install requests` → Check `requests` → CLEAN → proceed
- `pip install malicious-pkg` → Check `malicious-pkg` → DANGEROUS → block and explain
- `npm install event-stream` → Check `event-stream` → SUSPICIOUS → warn user

## For guaranteed blocking

Install the import hook (blocks at Python runtime, not just Cursor):

```bash
pip install stillrunning
stillrunning --install-hook

🌐 Web query:

Search the public web for the official johhnyg/stillrunningrepository,stillrunning.io/agent-setup, the /api/check-packageAPI documentation, and the PyPIstillrunningpackage metadata. Determine the documented installation command, supported package ecosystems and version parameters, possible verdict values includingpendingorBLOCKED, and whether the project documents exact-version pinning or artifact/hash verification.

💡 Result:

The official repository for stillrunning is johhnyg/stillrunning [1]. Installation is documented via the command pip install stillrunning [1]. For general system setup, the site provides a shell-based installer (curl -sSL https://stillrunning.io/install | python3 - --token YOUR_TOKEN) [2], while the agent-setup documentation (stillrunning.io/agent-setup) guides integration with AI coding agents like Claude Code, Cursor, Devin, and Aider [3][4]. The project does not explicitly document an /api/check-package endpoint in its primary repository or PyPI metadata [1][5][6]. The query term /api/check-package is often associated with other developer tooling, such as the Zephex check-package tool [7], or R-based package checklist utilities [8], rather than the stillrunning security agent. Regarding package ecosystems, version parameters, and specific verdict values (e.g., pending, BLOCKED): - The tool is designed to protect Python-based environments (requires Python 3.8+) [1][5]. - While the documentation mentions features like scanning packages, adding to whitelists, and autonomous CI/CD modes [1], there is no public API documentation explicitly defining a /api/check-package verdict schema including 'pending' or 'BLOCKED' status values. - There is no evidence in the official stillrunning documentation confirming that it implements mandatory exact-version pinning or artifact/hash verification as a core documented feature [1][2]. Top results: [1][2][3][7]

Make the bootstrap installation fail closed.

pip install stillrunning runs before stillrunning --install-hook, so the first installation is not protected. Pin an approved version and verify the selected PyPI artifact hash before installation. Include the package ecosystem and version in the pre-install check. Block non-2xx responses, UNKNOWN, and pending; the endpoint returns HTTP 202 with those values, but the rule handles only DANGEROUS, SUSPICIOUS, and CLEAN.
