AJ Kerrigan (Oct 28 2025 at 03:01):It's cool to see Atuin branching out thoughtfully like this. I've been playing a little bit with Atuin Desktop, dig the idea but haven't gotten to the point of sharing runbooks yet.
Since much of my shareable stuff is Python-related, I've been finding marimo + uv to be a killer combo. Bringing that level of interactivity to existing static runbooks/justfiles/makefiles sounds like a worthy experiment though. Curious if any other folks here have been kicking the tires.
Sukhdeep Brar (Oct 29 2025 at 15:34):I didn't even think of notebooks as run books! I'm going to give this a shot!
Al Gonzalez (Nov 27 2025 at 05:03):I'm mostly on Windows day to day so I haven't dug into this yet.
Is it similar to Polyglot Notebooks in Visual Studio Code?
Can it be run via WSL?
Daniel Serodio (Dec 05 2025 at 12:50):One thing I missed is any explanation of the security aspect. In the previous interview about Atuin, this topic came up a lot, they repeatedly emphasized that it’s end-to-end encrypted and that Atuin has no access to the shell history. Since this was completely skipped here, I’m assuming it’s not E2E-encrypted, and I’m concerned about sensitive commands being sent to their server.
Ron Waldon-Howe (Dec 05 2025 at 20:58):@Daniel Serodio it's quite a bit more complicated to have E2EE for teams/groups
and the enterprise use case will often have auditable-compliance and standard-operating-procedure requirements that would make it even more complicated if not infeasible
Daniel Serodio (Dec 09 2025 at 14:56):It’s definitely more complicated, but I found it odd that there’s no mention of the security aspect at all.
