Their responses in that thread do not inspire confidence in the product for me, to put it mildly.
The disclaimer currently is near the end of the document and says only "Purely experimental project. Designed for learning purposes not production use.".
Some people will miss that at the bottom of the page (after how to install, how to use, etc.), or might not realize that textbook RSA is insecure (https://crypto.stanford.edu/~dabo/courses/cs255_winter00/RSA...).
Of note is that they're using a Let's Encrypt cert and running in AWS.
$ pip freeze -r requirements.txt > constraints.txt
after you've installed all your packages gives you a constraints file that can be used to reinstall exactly the same versions: $ pip install -r requirements.txt -c constraints.txt"Agentless" means that it works by pushing to the machine and that there isn't an agent process already running on the target. It doesn't mean that there aren't any requirements on what needs to be installed on the target already.
Beware of the Turing tar-pit in which everything is possible but nothing of interest is easy.

So 'curl ... | sudo -' is just fine now because we can't verify from the bottom, so there's no sense in verifying what we're piping to sudo?
