SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

The healthcheck skill reduces the risk of an OpenAEON deployment by guiding users through host hardening and posture alignment, using read-only inspection first and requiring explicit approvals for any changes.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Host context discovery: Infers OS, privilege level, access path, network exposure, backup status, and encryption/update posture to tailor guidance without breaking connectivity.
  • OpenAEON security audits (read-only and optional safe fixes): Runs openaeon security audit --deep and can offer --fix to tighten OpenAEON defaults and permissions.
  • Version/update status checks: Executes openaeon update status to report channel state and whether updates are available.
  • Risk-tolerant remediation planning: Builds a step-by-step plan, highlights gaps vs target profile, and explains rollback/access-preservation strategies before execution.
  • Optional scheduling: Offers deterministic periodic audits via openaeon cron add with stable job names, after audits/hardening passes.

Quick Start

Run healthcheck on your machine to audit OpenAEON and produce a remediation plan aligned to your risk tolerance: “Run the healthcheck skill on this host and suggest the safest hardening plan that preserves my current access.”

FAQPage Schema
How do I run a security audit on my OpenAEON host without losing SSH access or breaking firewall rules?▼

A security audit on an OpenAEON host uses read-only inspections like `openaeon security audit --deep` to assess SSH and firewall posture, then builds a reversible remediation plan that requires explicit approvals and preserves existing access paths before applying any state-changing fixes.

What's the best way to harden my host and OpenAEON deployment risk posture step by step?▼

Host hardening and risk posture alignment follow a numbered interactive workflow that infers OS context, network exposure, and update status, highlights gaps versus a target profile, and explains rollback strategies before executing any least-privilege remediation actions.

Does the OpenAEON update status check work alongside the security audit to identify missing host hardening patches?▼

Yes, the update status check executes `openaeon update status` to report the channel state and available updates, combining that output with host context discovery and deep security audit results to provide a comprehensive view of your current risk posture.

Can I schedule recurring health checks and security audits automatically on OpenAEON hosts?▼

You can schedule deterministic periodic audits using `openaeon cron add` with stable job names, but this optional scheduling is only offered after initial audits and hardening passes complete successfully to ensure the baseline risk posture is established.

What happens if a proposed OpenAEON security fix breaks my current network exposure or backup configuration?▼

Any proposed fix from the OpenAEON security audit is risk-tolerant and reversible, meaning the workflow assesses backup status, encryption posture, and network exposure first, then requires explicit approval and provides rollback-aware execution strategies before applying changes.

Do I need root privileges or special dependencies to review OpenAEON firewall and SSH hardening recommendations?▼

No special dependencies are required, but the workflow infers your privilege level during host context discovery to tailor guidance, using read-only OS and OpenAEON inspections for review while requiring appropriate privileges and explicit approval only for state-changing remediation actions.
