A CLI to upload to capgo servers

AI Security Review

scanned 25d ago · by lpm-firewall-ai

Static inspection shows a user-invoked Capgo CLI with package-aligned endpoints and no npm lifecycle hook. Process spawning and agent detection stay inside explicit CLI behavior and do not form an install-time attack.

Static reason

High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.; source matched previously finalized malicious package; routed for review

Trigger

A user runs the capgo command or imports the published SDK.

Impact

No unconsented credential theft, remote payload execution, persistence, or foreign agent-control write was established.

Mechanism

The CLI talks to Capgo service hosts and uses local process helpers for documented build and upload work. There is no registry lifecycle script.

AI rationale

Network endpoints4

capgo.appfiles.capgo.appapi.capgo.appconsole.capgo.app

Decision evidence

public snapshot

AI called this Clean at 86.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.

Evidence for AI clean decision

package.json names the capgo bin at dist/index.js and defines no preinstall, install, or postinstall hook.
dist/index.js is a user-invoked CLI whose bundled hosts are capgo.app, files.capgo.app, api.capgo.app, and console.capgo.app.
dist/updater-installed-worker.js runs an updater-installed add_updater scan and then exits; it is not an install hook.
dist/src/sdk.js is a library module that exports a default config object.

Evidence against

Bundled child_process usage is tied to local CLI, build, and browser helpers rather than an automatic install path.
Agent-name detection strings appear inside the bundled CLI and do not write a foreign agent config at install time.
