⚠ Under reviewEnd-to-end encrypted messaging for AI agents: connects an agent to its owner, rooms and other agents on AgentVault.
AI Security Review
scanned 9d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe inspected source shows credential-bearing API requests, but does not establish their effective destinations across callers. I cannot resolve that data flow from the available source evidence, so the result requires manual review; scanner labels alone do not establish an attack.
Static reason
High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.
Trigger
The hub skill-loading or device polling flow runs when invoked by the application.
Impact
The excerpts do not establish whether a caller can redirect these credentials to an unrelated endpoint.
Mechanism
The requests attach an API key or device JWT to API routes built from apiUrl or this.config.apiUrl.
AI rationale
The inspected source shows credential-bearing API requests, but does not establish their effective destinations across callers. I cannot resolve that data flow from the available source evidence, so the result requires manual review; scanner labels alone do not establish an attack.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Manual Review at 54.0% confidence as Unknown with medium false-positive risk.
AI review observations
- The manifest has no install, preinstall, or postinstall hook; its prepublishOnly script runs the build.
- Hub skill loading sends an API key to the supplied apiUrl, but the inspected source does not establish every caller’s apiUrl value or the effective destination.
- Device message polling sends a device JWT to this.config.apiUrl; source inspection did not resolve all configuration callers or destination overrides.
Evidence against
- The manifest identifies AgentVault’s API host as the default API URL, and the inspected hub skill request uses an AgentVault API route.
- The available message polling excerpts use the configured API URL for device message and pending-message endpoints.
