The install hook only installs bundled MCP dependencies when Bun is available; runtime behavior implements the declared Claude gateway. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 88.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-26T05:47:38.477Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-26T05:48:36.858Z - **Download time:** 1013 ms - **Static scan time:** 6505 ms - **AI review time:** 50860 ms - **Total time:** 58381 ms The recorded confidence comes from the underlying analysis. Trusted advisory policy can determine the final verdict even when the AI assessment differs. ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** No confirmed malicious attack surface. The install hook only installs bundled MCP dependencies when Bun is available; runtime behavior implements the declared Claude gateway. - **Trigger:** User installs the package or starts/configures the gateway. - **Impact:** No attacker-directed exfiltration, stealth persistence, or foreign agent-control mutation was confirmed. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, dist/session/process.js, dist/api/router.js, dist/api/packages.js, dist/discord/receiver.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-26T05:48:36.858Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Bundled MCP dependency setup and local Claude session orchestration. - **Rationale:** The flagged primitives are consistent with a multi-agent Claude gateway: optional MCP setup, configured bot/API calls, and user-invoked local Claude execution. Source inspection found no concrete malicious chain or unconsented install-time control-surface mutation. - **Files touched:** mcp/, dist/session/process.js, dist/api/router.js, dist/api/packages.js - **Network endpoints:** https://slack.com/api/auth.test, https://api.telegram.org, https://registry.npmjs.org/ ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 88.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** Postinstall conditionally runs Bun dependency installation for its bundled mcp directory., Runtime intentionally spawns the local Claude CLI with skipped permission prompts. - **Evidence against:** No source evidence of secret harvesting or transmission to an attacker-controlled endpoint., Observed network calls are service-aligned token validation and npm version lookup., Package update and workspace writes occur through gateway API/runtime functionality, not silently at install., No lifecycle code mutates a foreign or broad AI-agent control surface. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @0xmaxma/claude-gateway@1.7.10. - Review the evidence and your use of @0xmaxma/claude-gateway@1.7.10 before allowing it. Restrict the permissions described in this report. - Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe. ## Public findings ### 1.
