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 only npm lifecycle hook chmods a dependency helper and does not touch agent control files. Reading Claude session logs and talking to the package proxy are user-started features of this voice-control host, not a hidden install attack. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 84.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-27T21:18:17.401Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-27T21:19:20.693Z - **Download time:** 765 ms - **Static scan time:** 466 ms - **AI review time:** 62061 ms - **Total time:** 63292 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 install-time attack was identified. The postinstall hook only marks a node-pty helper executable, and session-log reads plus the AgentVox proxy run only after the user starts the CLI. - **Trigger:** No automatic attack trigger. Pairing, agent launch, and the proxy connection start only when the user runs the host or vox command. - **Impact:** No unconsented agent-config mutation, credential theft, or remote payload execution was established from the inspected source. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-27T21:19:20.693Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Install execution is limited to chmod of spawn-helper. Claude project JSONL is read locally to summarize the last user message. - **Rationale:** The only npm lifecycle hook chmods a dependency helper and does not touch agent control files. Reading Claude session logs and talking to the package proxy are user-started features of this voice-control host, not a hidden install attack. ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 84.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** package.json exposes agentvox-host and agentvox-vox bins and a postinstall that only runs scripts/fix-pty-helper.mjs., That postinstall script chmod 0755s node-pty prebuild spawn-helper when the executable bit is missing, then exits., dist/cli.js parseClaude only reads ~/.claude/projects JSONL for the last user line of a named agent and does not write Claude or Codex settings., dist/vox.js is a user-run CLI whose default proxy is https://proxy.agentvox.bot and can be overridden with AGENTVOX\_PROXY. - **Evidence against:** When the host or vox process is started, it can globally npm-install a newer release of itself unless AGENTVOX\_AUTO\_UPDATE=0., Default agent launch arguments include Claude bypassPermissions and Codex dangerously-bypass-approvals-and-sandbox, which is the stated hands-free control behavior. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @agentvox/host@0.1.22. - Review the evidence and your use of @agentvox/host@0.1.22 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.
