About VICE Platform - Private Beta
VICE Platform - Private Beta is a specialized security auditing tool built explicitly for indie builders and developers who ship fast. Designed to evaluate web applications the exact way an attacker would, VICE identifies critical vulnerabilities such as leaked secrets in JavaScript bundles, Supabase Row Level Security (RLS) misconfigurations, exposed APIs, and weak infrastructure or headers.
The underlying security engine is open source and completely free to use today either as a standalone CLI tool or integrated smoothly into a GitHub Action workflow. For teams looking for a complete end-to-end security loop, the hosted VICE Platform adds domain verification, comprehensive automated audits, evidence-backed findings, actionable suggested fixes, and built-in retesting capabilities to ensure vulnerabilities have been successfully resolved.
Pros of VICE Platform - Private Beta
- Open-source scanning engine available as a free CLI or GitHub Action
- Audits web apps from an attacker's perspective (bundles, APIs, RLS)
- Hosted platform offers a full remediation loop: audit, evidence, fix, and retest
- Tailored specifically for indie builders and fast-shipping development teams
Cons of VICE Platform - Private Beta
- Currently operating in a private beta phase with limited availability (10 founding spots)
- Full remediation and verification loop requires the hosted platform rather than just the open-source CLI

About Vizhi
Vizhi (derived from the Tamil word for "eye") acts as a specialized mission control dashboard for monitoring and managing your Codex CLI sessions. Developed by indie developer Ravi Shankar, Vizhi is designed to keep an eye on active execution sessions so developers don't have to constantly tab back and forth into their terminal windows.
The tool provides deep integration with hardware controllers like the Logitech MX Creative Keypad, enabling users to keep track of up to six live sessions simultaneously. Through this physical interface, developers can perform quick action executions, such as one-press session approvals, and issue local voice prompts powered by Whisper.
For developers who do not own a hardware keypad, Vizhi provides a local browser dashboard that offers visibility and control over active sessions. As an open-source developer tool available on GitHub, Vizhi fits seamlessly into terminal-centric AI development workflows.
Pros of Vizhi
- Monitors up to six live Codex CLI sessions simultaneously
- Integrates with Logitech MX Creative Keypad for tactile, one-press approvals
- Supports local Whisper voice prompts for easy command input
- Offers a local browser dashboard for users without a physical keypad
- Open-source developer tool available on GitHub
Cons of Vizhi
- Full physical experience requires a specific device (Logitech MX Creative Keypad)
- Designed specifically around Codex CLI workflows rather than general terminal tasks
