I’d like to see this too.

Some considerations - as the maintainer of FreeBSD packages, I’d like to be 
able to distribute some of these scripts alongside elixir or Phoenix

This is so we give people a smooth out of the box experience, particularly when 
running in CI or Packaging mode without internet access.

If there is a way to namespace these checks perhaps, to have a private set of 
scripts that we can configure once and have each system/user fetch themselves 
from our private instance, that could be very handy.

Ideally disabling update checks for privacy paranoics is nice.

For naming “hex” is nice - it also can be used as a verb in English and German, 
to cast a spell.

A+
Dave
