Hosts
Every host the MiniCut CLI calls, so you can allow them in a sandbox or a firewall.
Allow these hosts in a sandbox, a firewall or a proxy. MiniCut calls no other host. minicut setup also runs the skills tool (npx skills), which reaches the GitHub hosts and skills.sh below; DO_NOT_TRACK=1 or minicut telemetry off stops its count to skills.sh.
