Show HN: Firefighter.sh – an insane solution to the current CVE apocalypse

Score: 6.0/10 (Innovation: 7, Technical: 7, Documentation: 6, Utility: 4)

Firefighter.sh is an autonomous incident-response daemon that ingests CVE and vulnerability disclosures, uses an LLM to assess relevance to a specific Linux host, and executes remediation commands as root without human approval. It's an ambitious, technically complex system combining signed advisory feeds, local inventory caching, model-driven reasoning, and durable reporting, but its fully autonomous root execution model and lack of live production validation make it risky and niche.

Target audience: devops and security engineers managing Linux servers
