AI Security Review
scanned 8d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe package exposes JavaScript launchers and the inspected credential request is directed to the configured relay. However, both shipped native daemon binaries remain unresolved, so their behavior cannot be cleared or independently classified from the inspected evidence.
Static reason
No blocking static signals were detected.; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source
Trigger
Use of a command that starts the platform daemon.
Impact
Unknown; the evidence does not establish malicious behavior.
Mechanism
The source launches a daemon binary, but the available host analyses could not determine the binaries’ behavior.
AI rationale
The package exposes JavaScript launchers and the inspected credential request is directed to the configured relay. However, both shipped native daemon binaries remain unresolved, so their behavior cannot be cleared or independently classified from the inspected evidence.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Manual Review at 94.0% confidence as Unknown with medium false-positive risk.
AI review observations
- The package manifest exposes JavaScript command launchers.
- Both shipped daemon binaries have hash-bound host analyses, but their format and behavior remain unresolved.
- The Playwright daemon source resolves and launches the installed Playwright CLI.
Evidence against
- The inspected wait code sends its token to the configured relay as part of a claim-boundary request; this alone does not establish an attack.
