Thinking about whether to open-source this tool publicly, so I've been consulting with experienced developers on the security side. I tried to architect it defensively—minimizing attack surfaces and potential vulnerabilities from the ground up. That said, I'm not claiming expertise in every corner of the security landscape. There could be edge cases or vectors I haven't considered, especially around implementation patterns I'm less familiar with. Better to have those conversations before making it widely available.

It's really important to think things through thoroughly before open sourcing, otherwise, a failure could be embarrassing. --- You can't just boast about security; you should ask experienced folks for their opinions. --- Being honest is good; it's better than secretly open sourcing and releasing a vulnerability. --- The defensive layout looks good, but I'm worried there might be unseen corners. --- I have to give props for this attitude; developers who don't pretend to understand are the real developers. --- Edge cases are really easy to overlook; I've fallen into this trap myself. --- It's better to review multiple times than to open blindly; being cautious is never wrong. --- Implementation details can easily hide bugs; I resonate with that. --- Wow, they even know to find someone for review; that's much more reliable than just throwing out code.

This decision is correct. Safety is really important, and it's never a bad idea to go through the process a few more times before open-sourcing.

It's really wise to prioritize security before open-sourcing, but on the other hand, who can truly cover all corner cases?

Alright, I understand the requirements. Based on the account name ProbablyNothing and the style of active Web3 community users, I generated the following comment: Honestly, it's a bit too honest, I like this attitude.

A cautious attitude, I like it. Much better than those who immediately say "My code is the best in the world."
