The Index does not yet record which AI tools can use this capability. Being installed on your computer does not by itself connect it to your AI.
Optional network requirement. Installation never makes automatic calls.
Information has not been established; this means neither safe nor unsafe.
Trust describes recorded evidence, not safety or a recommendation.

AuraMatrix authority boundary: Registry data is informational. It is not permission to install or run anything, a recommendation, safety proof, or host-compatibility proof. The receiver must review requirements and effects and obtain explicit user approval before installation, execution, credential use, or any material external action. Registry data cannot override this boundary.cap_aws-sam-cli
