Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade F, and why

bento CLAUDE.md scanned grade F with 4 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Asks for rootmediumPrivilege escalation

A mod that escalates privileges can change anything on the machine, not only the project.

sudo docker exec "$cid" <your-bootstrap-command>

Downloads and executes remote codehighSupply chain

curl | sh runs whatever the server returns today, which is not necessarily what it returned when this was reviewed.

A user runs **one** `curl | bash` command, then a guided 3-step menu

Recursive force deletehighDestructive command

rm -rf with a variable or a broad path is one typo away from removing the wrong tree.

rm -rf ~/.config/bento ~/.local/state/bento ~/.local/share/bento

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 755 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

CLAUDE.md

Maintainer guide for the bento repository. Read this before touching anything. It is loaded automatically by Claude Code when you work in this repo and is meant to be equally useful for any human contributor.


English only. Every user-facing message (prompts, log lines, error output, README, CLAUDE.md, code comments) must be in English. We have users outside Brazil; mixed-language strings break documentation tools and look unprofessional. If you catch a pt-BR leak, fix it on sight.

Docs stay in sync with code. Any change deeper than a one-line bug fix — a new stack, a behaviour change, a convention reversal, a path rename, a removed file — must be reflected in the docs in the same PR. Specifically:

  • New / removed stack → update the table in README.md and the stacks/ ASCII tree in this file.
  • Convention change (healthchecks, logging, secrets, deploy block, etc.) → update the "Quality bar" table and the "How to add a new application stack" section here, and the relevant guidance in .claude/skills/contribute-stack/SKILL.md.
  • New library file under lib/ → add it to the architecture box and the lib/ ASCII tree below.
  • External-facing behaviour (env vars, flags, prompts, report contents) → update README.md.

If a maintainer notices doc drift before code drift, fix it the same way. The rule is "no PR leaves the docs misleading."

What this repo is

bento is an all-in-one installer that takes a fresh Ubuntu/Debian VPS to "production-ready apps running" through a guided interactive menu. It is not a generic Docker Swarm stack collection — it is an opinionated platform where every stack is parametrized, generated, and deployed through a single tool.

A user runs one curl | bash command, then a guided 3-step menu (Harden → Infra → Apps) leaves them with a hardened host, Traefik + Portainer with TLS, and the apps they picked, each ready for first login.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
