vllm

A software package for running large language models, which are programs that generate or understand text, images, and other inputs. vLLM can run models locally in batches or provide a server that accepts OpenAI-compatible requests.

In plain words
What is it for?
Running offline batch inference, serving models through an OpenAI-compatible API, using LoRA adapters, processing multimodal inputs, generating embeddings, classification, structured output, and tool calling.
Why use it?
It provides one tool for several model-serving and inference tasks instead of requiring separate systems for each model interface.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Grade A, and why

vllm scanned grade A with 0 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 2d 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.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

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.
