Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions. AI assessment: suspicious; recommendation: downgrade to warn. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. The automatic credential handoff is relevant to a Jcode connector, but it gives Jcode access to other AI providers’ logins by default without clear disclosure or an opt-in. The source does not establish that those credentials are sent to an unrelated host, so this merits a warning rather than a malicious verdict. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 83.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-31T12:41:35.257Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-31T12:42:48.674Z - **Download time:** 510 ms - **Static scan time:** 6478 ms - **AI review time:** 66428 ms - **Total time:** 73417 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:** By default, the Jcode host makes recognized credentials from other AI tools available to its Jcode process. - **Trigger:** Starting the Jcode host. - **Impact:** Jcode can access those other providers’ logins and potentially act as the user; the package does not disclose this handoff in its manifest. - **Evidence paths:** dist/host.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-31T12:42:48.674Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The host copies credential files from the user’s home into a private Jcode home, then launches Jcode’s API bridge with that home configured. - **Rationale:** The automatic credential handoff is relevant to a Jcode connector, but it gives Jcode access to other AI providers’ logins by default without clear disclosure or an opt-in. The source does not establish that those credentials are sent to an unrelated host, so this merits a warning rather than a malicious verdict. - **Files touched:** dist/host.js, ~/.claude/.credentials.json, ~/.codex/auth.json ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 83.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Unknown - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** The host’s credential inventory includes external AI tool logins such as Claude and Codex., Host startup mirrors credentials from the user’s home into the connector’s private Jcode home., The connector launches Jcode’s API bridge with that private home as JCODE\_HOME. - **Evidence against:** The package describes itself as a Jcode connector, so providing Jcode with model credentials is relevant to its purpose., The manifest declares no install lifecycle hooks. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @cotal-ai/connector-jcode@0.132.4. - Review the evidence and your use of @cotal-ai/connector-jcode@0.132.4 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.
