  • Installs to /usr/local/bin/awf

Manual Binary Installation (Alternative)

Linux (x64):

# Download binary and checksums
curl -fL https://github.com/github/gh-aw-firewall/releases/download/v0.13.1/awf-linux-x64 -o awf
curl -fL https://github.com/github/gh-aw-firewall/releases/download/v0.13.1/checksums.txt -o checksums.txt

# Verify checksum
sha256sum -c checksums.txt --ignore-missing

# Install
chmod +x awf
sudo mv awf /usr/local/bin/

NPM Installation (Alternative)

# Install from tarball
npm install -g https://github.com/github/gh-aw-firewall/releases/download/v0.13.1/awf.tgz

Quick Start

# Basic usage with domain whitelist
sudo awf --allow-domains github.com,api.github.com -- curl https://api.github.com

# Pass environment variables
sudo awf --allow-domains api.github.com -e GITHUB_TOKEN=xxx -- gh api /user

# Mount additional volumes
sudo awf --allow-domains github.com -v /my/data:/data:ro -- cat /data/file.txt

# Set working directory in container
sudo awf --allow-domains github.com --container-workdir /workspace -- pwd

See README.md for full documentation.
