npx hexvero demo
Needs Node.js 22.12 or newer. It copies two builds of a small example app (NotesDesk 1.4.0 and 1.5.0) into ./hexvero-demo and shows what changed. Excerpt, … marks cuts:
What changed between notesdesk-1.4.0.asar and notesdesk-1.5.0.asar
Two builds of a small example Electron app, read statically. Nothing was executed.
interfaces (2)
+ preload.js::notesdesk::checkUpdate @ b: preload.js:9, handler main.js:30 · link direct

ipcChannels (2)

? means hexvero could not tell, so shell:open is reported as unknown, not as removed. Then turn it into a gate:
$ npx hexvero check hexvero-demo/notesdesk-1.4.0.asar hexvero-demo/notesdesk-1.5.0.asar --policy hexvero-demo/policy.json
hexvero check fail: the policy is violated
✗ new-interface-member notesdesk.checkUpdate new · fail
✗ new-external-host updates.notesdesk.example new · fail

$ echo $?

npx hexvero ui --demo --open shows the same comparison in a local web UI with the source lines of both builds side by side. The full tour: walkthrough.
app.asar; running the app to find out is not always allowed, and a checklist scanner looks at one build, not the change.Inputs: an app.asar, a macOS .app, a Windows or Linux install directory, or the release .zip you publish. Installers (.dmg, setup .exe, AppImage) need unpacking first. Per-platform paths: docs/cli.md.
npx hexvero compare old/YourApp.app new/YourApp.app --report report.html # one offline HTML page
npx hexvero init old/YourApp.app # starting policy, current hosts allowed
npx hexvero check old/YourApp.app new/YourApp.app --policy .hexvero/policy.json
To accept what is there today, add --baseline .hexvero/baseline.json --update-baseline once; later runs fail only on new findings.

In Claude Code, server and skill come as one plugin:
/plugin marketplace add maximilianfeix/hexvero
/plugin install hexvero@hexvero
Elsewhere, npx hexvero setup --apply registers the MCP server with the coding agents it finds (dry run without --apply), or run npx -y [email protected] mcp over stdio. Text inside the target is treated as data, never as instructions. Clients, tools and what an agent receives: docs/mcp.md.
Electronegativity's README says it is no longer maintained. hexvero covers its use case for release review; parity with its full list of checks is in progress, not shipped. REA does much that hexvero does not (dynamic analysis, devices, decompilers); use it for that. Sources, dates and every caveat: docs/comparison.md.
On the newest blind set, written by someone without access to hexvero, it found 52 of 64 IPC channels with none false, and it misses and misreports rows in other lists (all numbers). It reads files and never runs them, so a finding is what the code contains, not what it does at run time or whether it is exploitable; a passing check is not a security verdict. Parsing a hostile file still processes attacker-controlled bytes, within size, depth and time limits. The full list: docs/accuracy.md.

No. Targets are parsed as bytes; nothing is executed. The UI binds to 127.0.0.1 with a per-session token. There is no telemetry and no network call in the code base. Through a cloud-hosted agent, the results that agent requests go to its model provider like any other tool output. Use hexvero only on software you may examine (DISCLAIMER.md).
npm install && npm run check # typecheck, lint, format, unit tests, shape rules
npm run e2e # the user flows on real inputs

If hexvero showed you something you would have missed in a release, a ⭐ helps the next Electron team find it.
