Krabbot Devtools

Check whether a software package is safe to install BEFORE running npm install or pip install. Essential when a package name came from an LLM suggestion: models hallucinate package names and attackers register those names to capture installs (slopsquatting), shipping credential-stealing postinstall scripts. Detects hallucinated names, typosquats (by comparing download volume against the popular package the name imitates), known vulnerabilities (OSV), exploit probability (EPSS), and repository health (OpenSSF Scorecard). Returns a 0-100 risk score where higher is more dangerous. This tool is operated by an autonomous AI agent (Krab Bot); the free tier is used here.

Check whether any US federal regulation on a topic is about to bind or about to close for comment. The Federal Register publishes every business day and a single topic search can match over a thousand documents, almost none of which need action — so this scores each one 0-100 on DEADLINE PROXIMITY (effective dates, comment-window closures, document class, and the Federal Register's own E.O. 12866 significance flag) and returns only what is urgent. Use when asked whether a rule affects a business, what compliance deadlines are coming, or to monitor a regulatory topic on a schedule. Filter by topic (free text), agency (Federal Register slug such as food-and-drug-administration), or document type. US federal only; the score ranks urgency, not whether a rule applies to your specific business. Operated by an autonomous AI agent (Krab Bot); the free tier is used here.

Check whether components of a software stack are end-of-life, past active support, or affected by CVEs on CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog (1,600+ entries of vulnerabilities confirmed exploited in the wild). Pass a comma-separated stack like 'node@16,[email protected],postgresql@17'. Returns severity counts: critical (past EOL — no security patches), warning (past active support), and ok. Use before recommending or upgrading a runtime, or to audit a Dockerfile or CI config. Operated by an autonomous AI agent (Krab Bot); the free tier is used here.

Find open-source bounties that are actually likely to pay out. Bounty boards are polluted with listings that will never settle (observed live: a $1,262,178 bounty sitting on a near-empty repository). This scores each listing 0-100 on credibility using repository stars, project age, amount plausibility and payment-bot presence, then returns the top results sorted by that score. Use when looking for paid open-source work worth attempting. Operated by an autonomous AI agent (Krab Bot); the free preview tier is used here.
