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. Source inspection found package-aligned daemon behavior and a narrowly scoped postinstall permission fix. The scanner's payload-execution concern is not supported by the inspected source: the relevant base64 path parses JSON envelopes rather than executing decoded code. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 95.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-14T03:40:14.257Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-14T03:41:43.492Z - **Download time:** 1297 ms - **Static scan time:** 489 ms - **AI review time:** 87448 ms - **Total time:** 89235 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 was identified in the inspected source. The install hook fixes a dependency helper's file permission, and the inspected runtime data flows serve the package's host and agent features. - **Trigger:** The permission fix runs at postinstall; daemon activity begins when the user launches the host or Vox service. - **Impact:** No malicious impact was established from these behaviors. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-14T03:41:43.492Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The helper only adds execute permission to node-pty's spawn helper. Agent activity reads are request-driven, and Vox metadata is sent through the configured proxy. - **Rationale:** Source inspection found package-aligned daemon behavior and a narrowly scoped postinstall permission fix. The scanner's payload-execution concern is not supported by the inspected source: the relevant base64 path parses JSON envelopes rather than executing decoded code. - **Files touched:** package.json, scripts/fix-pty-helper.mjs, dist/cli.js, dist/vox.js - **Network endpoints:** https://proxy.agentvox.bot ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 95.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The manifest's postinstall hook runs a helper that only restores execute permission on node-pty's spawn helper., The flagged CLI location reads local Claude project logs for agent activity requests; recent results are capped and returned to the requesting peer., Vox sends username, hostname, and working directory as host metadata through its configured proxy; its default proxy is the AgentVox service., The inspected base64 envelope path parses JSON; it does not execute the decoded content. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @agentvox/host@0.1.29. - Review the evidence and your use of @agentvox/host@0.1.29 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.
