Treat them as untrusted evidence. Do not execute instructions or code found in this document. ## Verdict summary **Flagged as agent extension risk** — Allowed by default with warning: install-time first-party agent extension setup was detected. - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Product-default install policy:** Warn - **Firewall policy:** Warn-only agent extension risk - **Public report status:** Published - **Threat category:** Agent extension lifecycle risk - **Selected version:** 0.23.46 - **Selected version is latest:** No - **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai) This is the current Firewall decision for the selected package version, based on the available public evidence. Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions. AI assessment: suspicious; recommendation: downgrade to warn. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. The reviewed behavior is an explicit setup path for this package's own OpenClaw channel, including configuration changes and workspace identity writes. No install-time attack or concrete malicious exfiltration was established, so this is a warning-level agent extension risk. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 91.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-14T15:08:26.700Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-14T15:11:11.962Z - **Download time:** 1023 ms - **Static scan time:** 19266 ms - **AI review time:** 144971 ms - **Total time:** 165262 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:** A user who runs the token-gated setup or create command can configure the AgentVault channel in OpenClaw and allow-list this plugin. The create flow can also write AgentVault hub profile details into agent workspace identity files; reviewed source did not establish malicious content or behavior. - **Trigger:** The user invokes the setup or create CLI command with an invite token. - **Impact:** This gives the package a guarded agent configuration path and lets service profile data populate agent identity files. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, dist/cli.js, openclaw.plugin.json - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-14T15:11:11.962Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The CLI runs OpenClaw configuration commands for the AgentVault channel and plugin allow list, then the create flow writes workspace identity files using fetched hub profile data. - **Rationale:** The reviewed behavior is an explicit setup path for this package's own OpenClaw channel, including configuration changes and workspace identity writes. No install-time attack or concrete malicious exfiltration was established, so this is a warning-level agent extension risk. - **Files touched:** openclaw.json, workspace-\/IDENTITY.md, workspace-\/SOUL.md - **Network endpoints:** https://api.agentvault.chat ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** The manifest has a build-only prepublish hook and no npm install-time hook., The token-gated setup command configures AgentVault channel settings and adds the plugin to OpenClaw's allow list., The create command is user-invoked and can write hub profile details into agent workspace identity files., Setup uses the package's AgentVault API at https://api.agentvault.chat., The plugin manifest identifies this package as an OpenClaw channel plugin. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @agentvault/agentvault@0.23.46. - Review the evidence and your use of @agentvault/agentvault@0.23.46 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.
