MagnetAPI.org ClaudeCodex CLI for Opus 5, Sonnet 5, Fable 5, and compatible Claude models.
AI Security Review
scanned 2mo ago · by lpm-firewall-aiStatic inspection shows a user-invoked managed Claude Code gateway launcher, not an install-time payload or covert collection chain. The multi-service credential auto-detection and prompted update fallback are noteworthy but package-aligned and insufficient to establish malicious intent.
Static reason
One or more suspicious static signals were detected.
Trigger
User runs claudecodex, login, setup, or model.
Impact
Routes the launched Claude Code client through the selected service; no install-time execution or foreign AI-agent configuration write is present.
Mechanism
Interactive gateway launcher with managed token configuration.
AI rationale
Static inspection shows a user-invoked managed Claude Code gateway launcher, not an install-time payload or covert collection chain. The multi-service credential auto-detection and prompted update fallback are noteworthy but package-aligned and insufficient to establish malicious intent.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Clean at 85.0% confidence as Benign with medium false-positive risk.
Evidence for AI clean decision
- No install lifecycle hook; only the claudecodex CLI is exposed.
- Credential submission occurs only in the interactive login command, then the returned token is stored in its own config file.
- The launcher spawns its declared Claude Code dependency without a shell and passes its managed gateway environment.
Evidence against
- Login auto-detect may submit entered dashboard credentials to four fixed gateway services.
- Runtime update checks can prompt for a global self-update, including a fixed hosted tarball fallback.
