Cleo

plugin

cleo is a dependency manager for Claude Code that lets teams pin and share their .claude/ configuration — rules, skills, agents, slash commands, hooks, and MCP server configs — through a single cleo.json manifest and lockfile. Run cleo install and every teammate's environment matches, with commit SHAs pinned so CI and laptops stay in sync. Three scopes (project, local, user) handle team-wide vs. personal vs. machine-wide installs. No registry — packages resolve directly to GitHub, GitLab, SSH

Works with: Claude Code (native)
native: this artifact type is that client's own format

Security audit

Not scanned yet. We audit npm-published capabilities for known advisories, install-time scripts and permission surface; this one has no npm package we can resolve, or has not reached the queue.

You searched for one. Check the rest of your stack:

npx tashan-cli doctor

Reads the config already on your machine and names what is dead, deprecated or running code at install time. No account, nothing uploaded.

Everything on this page is public evidence and free. What it cannot know is whether you run this — check your whole config, free, in the browser. tashan Pro adds the series behind each row and names a replacement for anything dying.

Already running this? Check your whole config — free, in your browser, nothing installed. Or npx tashan-cli doctor locally, which sends nothing at all.
