Hi! Thanks so much for reporting this. I'm not sure I understand all the details. > Turned off my security onion instance, which launcher was connecting to, and acts as...

Yes, feel free to redact any keys. The launcher config file may have a secret, but more likely points to a separate secret file. It will have a hostname in...

On possible workaround, which I don't love, would be to have launcher add itself to the whitelist, or to exclude it's data directory. Might be able to poke around these...

I'm not opposed. As a workaround, if you specify a local file (path starts with `./`) as the version, it will use that instead of downloading: https://github.com/kolide/launcher/blob/5ad8b4d7e59f265dcf5de41dc1ab2305a20859bc/pkg/packaging/packaging.go#L349-L357

Reworked everything to use functional arguments. I don't love the names, I used `IsText()`, because `TextColumn()` is taken by the existing, now deprecated, helper

Not convinced I like where this went. `IsFoo` reads weird as an argument, vs `AsFoo`, but since column type is required if feels like a mis-fit

Working with those values, I started testing them using booleans. https://github.com/kolide/osquery-go/pull/78 is a different approach

If we did something host-specific, I would be inclined towards mutual TLS

Hi There! Generally speaking, the best route for product support is to reach out to support via the intercom chat widget. But since you're here... This looks like an issue...
