## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 17 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:** 0.1.36
- **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: clean; recommendation: mark clean. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

Source inspection found a narrowly scoped postinstall permission fix and expected AgentVox and xAI network behavior. The flagged agent location only reads Claude session history; no concrete attack surface was established.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 91.0%
- **Started:** 2026-10-08T18:41:57.219Z

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 in the inspected source. The flagged network and host-control behavior matches the package’s host and voice-assistant functions.

- **Trigger:** The postinstall hook runs during installation; network requests and host controls run when the user pairs or starts the AgentVox host or voice assistant.

- **Impact:** No unauthorized credential forwarding, remote payload execution, or agent configuration mutation was established.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-08T18:42:29.478Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The install hook adjusts permissions on node-pty helper files. Runtime authentication uses the configured AgentVox proxy, and xAI credentials are sent to the xAI API.

- **Rationale:** Source inspection found a narrowly scoped postinstall permission fix and expected AgentVox and xAI network behavior. The flagged agent location only reads Claude session history; no concrete attack surface was established.

- **Files touched:** package.json, scripts/fix-pty-helper.mjs, dist/cli.js, dist/vox.js

- **Network endpoints:** https://proxy.agentvox.bot, https://api.x.ai/v1/realtime/client\_secrets, https://registry.npmjs.org

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 91.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** package.json runs a postinstall script that only adds execute permission to node-pty helper files., The flagged Claude path reads session-history directories; it does not configure or install an agent extension., The host sends its saved token to the configured proxy, while the xAI key is sent to xAI’s API endpoint., The update checker uses the npm registry and can be disabled with AGENTVOX\_AUTO\_UPDATE=0.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to @agentvox/host@0.1.36.

- Review the evidence and your use of @agentvox/host@0.1.36 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.
