## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 18 low-signal pattern(s) reviewed.

- **Verdict:** Clean
- **Product-default install policy:** Allow
- **Firewall policy:** No policy match
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** None published
- **Selected version:** 0.1.17
- **Selected version is latest:** Yes
- **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: clean; recommendation: mark clean. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The flagged process execution handles Codex turns, and the CLI routes bridge operation to the default AgentVault API or a validated HTTPS API origin. Startup is tied to explicit CLI use or service installation; the reviewed source does not establish unrelated credential or command-output exfiltration.

## Latest scan

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 attack was identified; the package runs a Codex bridge for AgentVault.

- **Trigger:** Explicit CLI use; the service starts for \`run\` or \`replace\`, and \`install\` configures a background service.

- **Impact:** Expected bridge operation can send user-requested prompts and replies through the AgentVault service; no unrelated collection or attack behavior was found.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-11-05T00:32:17.612Z

### AI review details

- **Review stage:** source\_first\_review

- **Mechanism:** The bridge invokes the local Codex CLI, reads its turn output, and communicates through the configured AgentVault API. The default API is https://api.agentvault.chat.

- **Rationale:** The flagged process execution handles Codex turns, and the CLI routes bridge operation to the default AgentVault API or a validated HTTPS API origin. Startup is tied to explicit CLI use or service installation; the reviewed source does not establish unrelated credential or command-output exfiltration.

- **Files touched:** dist/index.js, \<configured bridge state\>/config.json, \<configured bridge state\>/pending-invite, \<bridge state\>/codex/auth.json

- **Network endpoints:** https://api.agentvault.chat

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 89.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The manifest identifies this as an AgentVault bridge and exposes the bundle as both the main entry and CLI., The Codex driver parses the child process's structured turn output as the model reply., The CLI defaults to the AgentVault API and accepts only HTTPS API origins without embedded credentials, query strings, or fragments., Bridge startup is reached through the CLI's start path; the bundle calls main only when invoked as the entrypoint.

- **Evidence against:** The bundle uses child processes and network requests, matching its stated purpose as a Codex bridge., The \`prepublishOnly\` script builds the package; no install lifecycle hook is declared., The reviewed source shows no automatic forwarding of unrelated credentials or command output to an unrelated collector.
