Is devenv safe to install?

Yes — devenv is safe to install, on this review. Sonnet 5 read every file devenv ships from olafkfreund/nixos_config on 7 September 2026 and found nothing that acts against the person installing it; the static scan of its 26 rules grades it A.

What the reviewer found

devenv.sh skill documentation: curl|sh is the official Nix installer from nixos.org (the project's own domain), and rm -rf .devenv/state/postgres is a project-local service-state directory cleanup step in troubleshooting docs. Purely a reference guide for a standard dev-environment tool.

What was read

The file as it ships in olafkfreund/nixos_config:

What the static scan said

The scan flagged 3things. The reviewer kept 1 and dismissed 2 as false.

How this review was made

Sonnet 5 read the files above on 7 September 2026 and answered three questions: is it dangerous to whoever installs it, is each scanner finding real, and what should the installer know. The verdict is bound to the file's hash; when the file changes, it is scanned afresh and reviewed again. A script that changes while the definition does not is not re-reviewed — that is a known gap. How the scan and the review work.
