Cotal connector for Jcode: a host-mode mesh peer driven through Jcode's Harness API bridge.
AI Security Review
scanned 4d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe package has no install hook, and its flagged process execution and credential handling are part of launching a private Jcode agent runtime. Recognized provider credentials are copied locally for model access; the inspected code does not show them being exfiltrated to an unrelated host.
Static reason
One or more suspicious static signals were detected.
Trigger
The host connector starts within a managed session with a control endpoint.
Impact
The Jcode runtime can use the available provider logins for model access; no source path reviewed showed those credentials being sent to an unrelated collector.
Mechanism
It copies recognized provider credential files into a private per-seat Jcode home, then launches the Jcode runtime and connects the agent to the configured Cotal control plane.
AI rationale
The package has no install hook, and its flagged process execution and credential handling are part of launching a private Jcode agent runtime. Recognized provider credentials are copied locally for model access; the inspected code does not show them being exfiltrated to an unrelated host.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Clean at 86.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for AI clean decision
- The manifest exposes a JavaScript import entry and declares only typecheck, test, build, and bundle scripts; it has no install lifecycle hook.
- When the host runs, it mirrors recognized credential files into a private per-seat Jcode home; the code does not show those copies being sent to Cotal.
- The connector launches Jcode through the SDK with `inheritLogins: false`, avoiding a second implicit credential inheritance step.
- The SDK documentation explains that provider logins are needed for model access and supports starting without inherited logins.
Evidence against
- The host does read and copy recognized credentials from other AI tools by default, making them available to the Jcode runtime. This matches the connector’s agent-runtime purpose, but exposes those credentials to that runtime.
