Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions. AI assessment: clean; recommendation: mark clean. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. The flagged execution is part of the package’s disclosed runner behavior, activated by the user’s connect command. The inspected manifest has no install hook, and the reviewed source did not establish a separate attack. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 88.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-23T17:19:58.282Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-23T17:21:18.363Z - **Download time:** 1283 ms - **Static scan time:** 774 ms - **AI review time:** 78024 ms - **Total time:** 80081 ms The recorded confidence comes from the underlying analysis. Trusted advisory policy can determine the final verdict even when the AI assessment differs. ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** No attack was identified. The CLI starts the runner through an explicit connect command and discloses that connected tasks run without permission checks. - **Trigger:** The user invokes the cloop connect command to set up a runner. - **Impact:** This grants connected tasks broad execution capability, disclosed during local runner setup; inspected source did not establish a separate attack. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-23T17:21:18.363Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The runner launches the selected harness for connected tasks, including Codex with approval and sandbox checks bypassed. - **Rationale:** The flagged execution is part of the package’s disclosed runner behavior, activated by the user’s connect command. The inspected manifest has no install hook, and the reviewed source did not establish a separate attack. - **Files touched:** package.json, dist/index.js, dist/chunk-HVXCQQWG.js, dist/box-AF56GPSV.js, .lpm-dependency-evidence-c81e9f4b-88c2-49ad-acaa-cdfa2b4b664a/0/npm-linux/dist/mcp-DIH4cS6P.mjs, .lpm-dependency-evidence-c81e9f4b-88c2-49ad-acaa-cdfa2b4b664a/1/npm-linux/lib/websocket.js, .lpm-dependency-evidence-c81e9f4b-88c2-49ad-acaa-cdfa2b4b664a/0/npm-linux/package.json, .lpm-dependency-evidence-c81e9f4b-88c2-49ad-acaa-cdfa2b4b664a/0/npm-linux/dist/index.mjs, .lpm-dependency-evidence-c81e9f4b-88c2-49ad-acaa-cdfa2b4b664a/0/npm-linux/dist/stdio.mjs, .lpm-dependency-evidence-c81e9f4b-88c2-49ad-acaa-cdfa2b4b664a/1/npm-linux/package.json, .lpm-dependency-evidence-c81e9f4b-88c2-49ad-acaa-cdfa2b4b664a/1/npm-linux/wrapper.mjs, .lpm-dependency-evidence-c81e9f4b-88c2-49ad-acaa-cdfa2b4b664a/1/npm-linux/browser.js, .lpm-dependency-evidence-c81e9f4b-88c2-49ad-acaa-cdfa2b4b664a/1/npm-linux/index.js ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 88.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** package.json exposes dist/index.js as the CLI and declares no lifecycle hooks., The runner connects only through the explicit connect command; local setup reports that tasks run without permission checks., Codex’s bypass flags are part of the runner’s task execution command, consistent with that disclosed behavior., The inspected dependency paths show MCP server and WebSocket implementation code, with no install scripts in their manifests. - **Evidence against:** The runner deliberately starts Codex with approval and sandbox protections bypassed., The box command reads recent Claude session metadata, which may be shared as part of runner functionality. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @cloop/runner@0.3.18. - Review the evidence and your use of @cloop/runner@0.3.18 before allowing it. Restrict the permissions described in this report. - Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe. ## Public findings ### 1.
