Control your software supply chain in the age of AI agents.
Developers and AI agents add dependencies faster than anyone can review them. haymon is a private registry on your own server that serves only the packages you've let in.
Control
Nothing reaches your builds that you didn't let in.
-
A closed catalog
haymon serves the packages you imported and everything they require. Any other name gets a 404.
-
Versions you allow
Set a version range on a package, and releases outside it are never mirrored and can never be downloaded.
-
Private names stay private
A package from your own source is only ever fetched from it. Public registries are never asked, so a squatter can't slip in.
-
Copies on your disk
Archives are served from your server once built, each with its checksum recorded.
-
Clear roles
Only administrators add sources, credentials and users. Everyone else browses packages and installs with their own token.
Ecosystems
A truly universal home for all your packages.
-
Available
Composer PHP
- Composer v2 metadata protocol
- Packagist and any Composer repository
- GitHub, GitLab and git sources
-
Next
npm JavaScript
The next ecosystem on the platform, on the same sources, credentials and access control.

Planned
More to follow
More languages and protocols will follow npm. Tell us which ones your team needs.
Architecture
Many sources in. One endpoint out.
- Public registriesMirrored upstream
- gitlab.acme.devGit · GitLab token
- github.com/acmeGit · SSH key
- Your own archivesHosted in haymon
- Developer machinesLocal installs
- CI pipelinesEvery build
- DeploysProduction releases
-
Every release, one name
When a fork continues where the public registry stops, your clients see the releases from both under the same package name.
-
Priority settles ties
When two sources offer the same release, the higher-priority source supplies it.
-
Outages don't empty it
A source that's down keeps every release it already supplied, and your builds keep installing them.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What is haymon?
A private package registry you run yourself. It mirrors the packages you choose from public and private sources, and serves only those to your developers, CI and AI agents.
Which sources can it mirror?
Any Composer repository such as packagist.org, git remotes on
GitHub, GitLab or anywhere else, inline package
definitions, and archives you host in haymon itself.
How do developers and CI authenticate?
Each user has one Composer token, used with http-basic
(username and token) or as a Bearer token. Users can regenerate
their own token at any time.
What does it take to run?
One binary and a storage directory. The database is SQLite, the web
interface is built in, and background jobs run in the same process.
Configuration is environment variables or a .env file.
Does it download every archive up front?
No. An archive is built or fetched the first time a client asks for it, then served from disk. The first install of a new version waits for that build; every one after it doesn't.
How do I get it?
haymon is in early access. Request access and we'll get you set up.
