# node-addon-landlock-run

English | [中文](README.zh.md)

Landlock self-restrict-then-exec launcher for confining subprocesses on Linux: this entry package resolves the per-platform prebuilt binary, runs its functional enforcement probe, and builds its grant argv — consumers never spell launcher flags or parse launcher output themselves.

```js
import { grantArgs, launcherPath, probe } from 'node-addon-landlock-run';

const launcher = launcherPath();
if (probe(launcher) !== 'unusable') {
  const argv = [launcher, ...grantArgs({ readOnly: ['/'], readWrite: ['/tmp/work'] }), '--', 'bash', '-c', command];
}
```

The launcher installs a Landlock ruleset on itself and `exec`s the wrapped command; the ruleset is inherited across `execve`, so the whole process tree runs confined. Everything not granted is denied, and launcher failures exit `125` without running the command — fail-closed, never fail-open. The binary contract is pinned in the repo's `docs/cli-contract.md`; the C source rides this tarball (`src/main.c`) for audit.

Platform packages (`os`/`cpu`-selected optional dependencies, no JavaScript inside): `node-addon-landlock-run-linux-x64`, `node-addon-landlock-run-linux-arm64`. On hosts without one, `launcherPath()` returns a deterministic nonexistent path and `probe()` reports `'unusable'` — there is deliberately no install-time compile fallback.
