What Cellix does not protect against
Threat
Mitigation
Determined attacker / malicious model
Do not use Cellix as sole defense.
Kernel-level escape
MXC is public preview — upstream does not claim hardened boundaries.
Secret exfiltration
Pair with secret managers; use CELLIX_MIRROR=minimal.
Supply-chain in agent-generated code
Review + CI gates outside Cellix.
Safe deployment checklist
#
Practice
1
Scope CELLIX_WORKSPACE to the project — never C:\.
2
Run getSupportStatus() before accepting agent work.
3
Keep @microsoft/mxc-sdk pinned to versions tested with Cellix.
4
Run integration tests on Windows CI before fleet rollout.
5
Treat session logs (.cellix/sessions/) as sensitive — may contain command output.
