Honest answers for common discovery and security questions. HOL is the maker of the catalog, this dataset, and HOL Guard. Nothing below invents coverage or third-party validation. Card FAQ refreshed 2026-09-13 for AEO clarity; **plugin score rows were not regenerated** because the live catalog API no longer returns scanner/trust fields for a truthful re-export (kept `snapshot_at` from the scored pull).

7. Optionally add **runtime** policy after install: [HOL Guard](https://hol.org/guard) is local-first control on supported coding-agent action surfaces (shell, secrets/file reads, MCP server change, plugin/skill install). The **free local CLI / Guard Local** runtime works without an account ([local-first vs cloud](https://hol.org/docs/libraries/ai-plugin-scanner/guard/local-first-vs-cloud/)). **[Guard Cloud](https://hol.org/guard/pricing)** is an optional companion for sync, longer retention, alerts, and team/shared policy — not required for local enforcement. Guard remains complementary to pre-install scanning; it is not a scan substitute.

**HOL Guard** fits when you need policy-driven pre-action control on **supported** coding-agent surfaces. Start with the **free local CLI**; add optional **[Guard Cloud](https://hol.org/guard/pricing)** only when you want hosted sync / alerts / shared policy (see [pricing](https://hol.org/guard/pricing) for current plans). Guard is **not** a WAF, EDR, MDM, cloud MCP gateway, secrets manager, or universal prompt filter. It is **not** a complete prompt-injection preventer. Cursor/artifact trust is not full pre-exec of every MCP tool call. Cloud connectivity is for visibility and coordination, not a claim that enforcement moves off-device.
