## Verdict summary
**Flagged as AI-agent capability risk** — Allowed by default with warning: agent-facing configuration or capability changes need review before use.

- **Verdict:** Suspicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Warn
- **Firewall policy:** Warn-only AI-agent capability risk
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** AI-agent capability abuse
- **Selected version:** 0.135.18
- **Selected version is latest:** No
- **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai)

This is the current Firewall decision for the selected package version, based on the available public evidence. 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 host automatically discovers and mirrors credentials from multiple unrelated AI tools before launching Jcode. That may support Jcode’s provider integration, but the broad, default credential access creates a real risk without clear per-source consent; the inspected source does not prove credential exfiltration.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1

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:** The connector automatically exposes recognized credentials from other AI tools to its private Jcode instance, creating a credential-use risk without clear per-source consent.

- **Trigger:** When a managed Jcode host session starts.

- **Impact:** The Jcode process can use credentials from other tools. The inspected source does not establish transmission to an unintended host or an unrequested account action.

- **Evidence paths:** dist/host.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-11-03T09:31:22.294Z

### AI review details

- **Review stage:** source\_first\_review

- **Mechanism:** The host copies discovered credential files into its private Jcode home, then launches Jcode against that home.

- **Rationale:** The host automatically discovers and mirrors credentials from multiple unrelated AI tools before launching Jcode. That may support Jcode’s provider integration, but the broad, default credential access creates a real risk without clear per-source consent; the inspected source does not prove credential exfiltration.

- **Files touched:** dist/host.js, ~/.claude/.credentials.json, ~/.codex/auth.json, ~/.gemini/oauth\_creds.json, ~/.cursor/auth.json, ~/.config/github-copilot/hosts.json, ~/.openclaw/credentials/oauth.json

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 84.0%

- **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for warning:** When the host starts, it mirrors detected credentials into its private Jcode home before launching the Jcode instance., The mirrored credential inventory includes authentication files for Claude, Codex, Gemini, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, OpenClaw, OpenCode, and other tools., The connector starts a Jcode child using that prepared home; the child can access the mirrored credentials, although the source does not establish that they are sent to an unintended host.

- **Evidence against:** The manifest declares no install lifecycle scripts; its scripts are for typechecking, testing, and building., The package is a Jcode connector, and the credential mirror is placed in a private, per-seat Jcode home for that integration., The inspected code does not show the mirrored credentials being transmitted to an unrelated collector.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to @cotal-ai/connector-jcode@0.135.18.

- Review the evidence and your use of @cotal-ai/connector-jcode@0.135.18 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.
