BotBuddy — Swarm coordination CLI for multi-agent workflows
This report shows the evidence for @botbuddy/cli@1.64.14. 0 of 159 known versions are blocked or flagged. See all versions.
AI Security Review
scanned 10m ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe reviewed automation serves the CLI’s run-delivery, relay-wait, and staging-pool functions. Staging persistence requires an explicit human-only install command, and the inspected credential flow sends a session token to the configured BotBuddy relay.
Static reason
No blocking static signals were detected.; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source
Trigger
User invokes CLI commands; staging-pool persistence requires an explicit install command, while background delivery starts only when run updates are pending.
Impact
The reviewed behavior matches the package’s coordination and staging-session features; no unsolicited credential transfer or unrelated persistence was identified.
Mechanism
The CLI sends wait credentials to the BotBuddy relay and delivers run updates to the service endpoint recorded for the run. The staging-pool install command writes and starts its configured LaunchAgent.
AI rationale
The reviewed automation serves the CLI’s run-delivery, relay-wait, and staging-pool functions. Staging persistence requires an explicit human-only install command, and the inspected credential flow sends a session token to the configured BotBuddy relay.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Clean at 91.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for AI clean decision
- The manifest defines CLI binaries and runtime dependencies, with no lifecycle script declared.
- The launcher starts background delivery only for pending BotBuddy run updates; delivery sends the update to the run’s recorded service endpoint.
- Staging-pool installation is a named, human-only command that requires a tenant and obtains its configuration from the BotBuddy control plane.
- Wait credentials are resolved for relay waits and sent to the configured BotBuddy relay endpoint.
Evidence against
- The package includes an explicit staging-pool install command that writes a LaunchAgent and starts it; this is described as human-owned setup.
- The CLI may start a detached local delivery worker during normal invocations when run updates are pending.
