zh is the unified entry point for the entire ZeroHack geek tool family.
CVE querying, tool catalog, config management, API server — all behind one
command. Talks to a running zh-api (SupaLite) server or any Supabase
project with the same PostgREST wire format.
git clone https://github.com/ZeroHackOrg/zerohack-cli.git cd zerohack-cli && npm install # Requires @zerohack/shared — see resolution below
git clone https://github.com/ZeroHackOrg/zerohack-shared.git cd zerohack-shared && npm install && npm link cd ../zerohack-cli && npm link @zerohack/shared

Design principles:
- Pure core: client is a thin stateless HTTP wrapper.
- Tests never hit the network.
- The other
@zerohack/*packages exist sozhcan reuse them without duplicating logic.
Does not perform exploitation. Does not contact remote services unless
explicitly configured (zh api serve). Stores config in ~/.zerohack/
— no data leaves your machine.
