This is a desktop config, not a network service, so the attack surface is small. Still, a few things are worth stating, since some widgets read tokens and run local commands.

- Tokens (Home Assistant, a git API key) live in
quickshell/secrets/, which is gitignored. They are read at runtime and never logged or committed. - Personal config (hostnames, IPs, entity IDs) lives in an untracked
config.json. The tracked defaults are empty. - CI runs a secret scan (gitleaks) on every push to catch anything that slips through.
Super+Alt+P opens a launcher that runs read-only recon tools (nuclei, whatweb, ffuf) against a
target from the clipboard. It is disabled by default and gated by an owner allowlist: the buttons
stay disabled unless the target host matches a prefix you've added to reconLauncher.allowlist. Only
add hosts you own or are authorised to test. Nothing runs without an explicit click.
Widgets that shell out use argument arrays (execDetached([...])), never interpolated shell strings, so
clipboard or config values can't inject commands. Secrets are passed via environment or request bodies,
not on the command line.
