history

Project history and usage

ALCOM is an open-source, cross-platform graphical client for managing VRChat projects and packages, built on vrc-get as an alternative to VRChat Creator Companion.

Project history

ALCOM began as vrc-get-gui, a graphical interface built on the community-developed vrc-get command-line client. The project adopted the ALCOM name, derived from “alternative companion,” while retaining vrc-get as its package-management engine.

Adoption history

The GUI became available experimentally in late February 2024 and evolved into a cross-platform application for Windows, macOS, and Linux. Compatibility with VCC's shared settings allows users to adopt ALCOM without uninstalling VCC or performing a separate migration.

How it is used

Users manage VRChat projects, repositories, and packages; install or update multiple packages; view package changelogs; and share compatible settings with the official VRChat Creator Companion.

Why package nerds care

ALCOM is package-management software distributed through package managers: a graphical client for the VRChat Package Manager ecosystem that itself is installable through Homebrew Cask. Its emphasis on fast, concurrent package installation and changelog visibility is directly relevant to package-management enthusiasts.

security posture

No protected-tool coverage found yet

No matching local secret-handling manifest was found for alcom. Package metadata is still published here so future coverage has a stable package URL.

Install behavior

  • No Homebrew post-install hook is recorded in formula metadata.
  • No Homebrew bottle metadata was recorded.

Recommended review

Before unattended agent use, check whether the tool reads plaintext credentials, writes remote state, publishes artifacts, or shells out to plugins.
