## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 14 low-signal pattern(s) reviewed.

- **Verdict:** Clean
- **Product-default install policy:** Allow
- **Firewall policy:** No policy match
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** None published
- **Selected version:** 0.135.3
- **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: clean; recommendation: mark clean. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The package’s process execution fits its stated role as a Jcode Harness connector. Although its helper can inherit external credentials by default, the host call examined here explicitly sets \`inheritLogins:false\`.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 88.0%
- **Started:** 2026-11-02T21:59:11.372Z
- **Finished:** 2026-11-02T21:59:49.607Z

- **Static scan time:** 5023 ms
- **AI review time:** 32204 ms
- **Total time:** 38235 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 in the inspected credential and process-launch paths; process execution supports the connector’s Jcode Harness integration.

- **Trigger:** The host launches a private Jcode API bridge when operating the connector.

- **Impact:** The inspected path does not inherit the listed external AI-provider credentials into the launched instance.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-11-02T21:59:49.607Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** It starts the configured Jcode binary with \`api-bridge\` and explicitly disables login inheritance for that instance.

- **Rationale:** The package’s process execution fits its stated role as a Jcode Harness connector. Although its helper can inherit external credentials by default, the host call examined here explicitly sets \`inheritLogins:false\`.

- **Files touched:** temporary Jcode instance directory and runtime socket paths

- **Network endpoints:** broker.cotal.ai, cotal.ai

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 88.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The package describes itself as a Cotal connector that drives Jcode through its Harness API bridge., The host launches its private Jcode instance with \`inheritLogins:false\`, disabling the helper’s credential inheritance for this caller.

- **Evidence against:** The helper supports copying or linking third-party credential files when credential inheritance is enabled, but the inspected host call disables it.

## Affected versions and remediation
