AI Security Review
scanned 7d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe inspected JavaScript did not establish concrete attack behavior, but two shipped native daemon executables remain unresolved. This prevents a clean verdict, and the unresolved binaries alone do not establish maliciousness.
Static reason
No blocking static signals were detected.; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source
Trigger
Invoking package functionality that uses a native daemon.
Impact
Their effects on the host and user data cannot be determined.
Mechanism
The daemon executables could not be assessed from the available source inspection.
AI rationale
The inspected JavaScript did not establish concrete attack behavior, but two shipped native daemon executables remain unresolved. This prevents a clean verdict, and the unresolved binaries alone do not establish maliciousness.
Evidence
daemon/bin/darwin-arm64/botbuddy-daemondaemon/bin/linux-x64/botbuddy-daemon
Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Manual Review at 88.0% confidence as Unknown with medium false-positive risk.
AI review observations
- The manifest exposes CLI entrypoints and includes a daemon directory in the package.
- The inspected launcher passes command arguments to the CLI runtime.
- The wait client sends its session credential to the configured relay endpoint.
Evidence against
- The package contains native daemon executables whose behavior remains unresolved; their available analysis does not establish whether they are safe.
