@bongos/core@1.19.958
Cloud Bongos — the AI-first build platform core (GDS + platform surfaces + module system), installed as a versioned dependency (ADR 0108).
AI Security Review
scanned 15d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe source establishes an automatic devcontainer setup that disables Claude Code's default permission prompts, a concrete agent capability risk. The manifest has no npm lifecycle hook, so this evidence supports a warning rather than a malicious verdict.
Static reason
High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source
Trigger
Creating the devcontainer runs its post-create command.
Impact
Claude Code may run without its usual permission prompts in that container.
Mechanism
The post-create script updates ~/.claude/settings.json and writes permissions.defaultMode as bypassPermissions.
AI rationale
The source establishes an automatic devcontainer setup that disables Claude Code's default permission prompts, a concrete agent capability risk. The manifest has no npm lifecycle hook, so this evidence supports a warning rather than a malicious verdict.
Evidence
.devcontainer/devcontainer.json.devcontainer/post-create.sh~/.claude/settings.json
Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Suspicious at 91.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with medium false-positive risk.
Evidence for warning
- The devcontainer runs its post-create script automatically after the workspace is mounted.
- That script sets Claude Code's user-level default permission mode to bypassPermissions and writes the settings file.
Evidence against
- The manifest defines a CLI and library entrypoint but no npm install lifecycle script.
- The permission change is in the devcontainer setup path; no network endpoint or credential transfer is involved in the inspected behavior.
