lv24-vigil (Python launcher)
A thin Python launcher for Vigil, a local-first security auditor for code.
Vigil itself is a Go binary distributed as a Node.js command-line tool published
on npm as lv24-vigil. This package
does not reimplement Vigil and does not bundle Node.js: the vigil command
delegates to the npm package through npx.
The npm package remains the canonical distribution. The PyPI package only contains this launcher.
Prerequisites
- Node.js 18 or newer, including npm and npx (nodejs.org).
- Network access on first run, or an npm cache that already contains the
requested package, because
npxmay download it. - Python 3.9 or newer.
Installation
pip install lv24-vigil
This installs two equivalent console scripts:
vigillv24-vigil
Usage
vigil version
vigil scan --no-llm
vigil status
All arguments are forwarded unchanged to the npm CLI. The child process inherits the terminal, environment and working directory, and its exit code is propagated. You can also run:
python -m lv24_vigil --help
If npx cannot be found, the launcher exits with code 127 and prints an
installation hint. An interrupted run exits with code 130.
Version pinning
By default the launcher runs the npm package version matching its own version
(currently 0.5.0). Override it with VIGIL_NPM_VERSION to use any npm version
or tag:
VIGIL_NPM_VERSION=latest vigil --help
VIGIL_NPM_VERSION=0.5.0 vigil scan --no-llm
PowerShell:
$env:VIGIL_NPM_VERSION = "latest"; vigil --help
