Cotal connector for Jcode: a host-mode mesh peer driven through Jcode's Harness API bridge.
AI Security Review
scanned 18h ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe package exports a connector without install hooks, and its host launches Jcode's API bridge as part of the connector's intended operation. Credential handling and network requests observed are consistent with configuring Jcode and user-invoked connector features; the routing flags alone do not establish malicious behavior.
Static reason
One or more suspicious static signals were detected.; source matched previously finalized malicious package; routed for review; source fingerprint signature matched known malicious package; routed for review
Trigger
Import registers the connector; launching a configured Jcode seat starts its host and API bridge. Feedback and documentation requests occur when their features are used.
Impact
No malicious impact identified from the inspected source.
Mechanism
The host reads configuration and Jcode credentials, starts the local Jcode api-bridge subprocess, and makes feature-related HTTP requests.
AI rationale
The package exports a connector without install hooks, and its host launches Jcode's API bridge as part of the connector's intended operation. Credential handling and network requests observed are consistent with configuring Jcode and user-invoked connector features; the routing flags alone do not establish malicious behavior.
Evidence
Jcode home and runtime files, paths derived from JCODE_HOME, JCODE_RUNTIME_DIR, or the user's home directory

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Clean at 88.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for AI clean decision
- package.json exports dist/index.js and declares no lifecycle scripts.
- The entrypoint registers and exports the Jcode connector; the host is launched only through the connector's launch configuration.
- The host starts Jcode's api-bridge subprocess and can inherit Jcode credentials into its isolated Jcode home.
- The host's feedback request sends a JSON body to the configured feedback endpoint; no evidence shows unrelated credential collection or transmission.
Evidence against
- The host reads credential files and environment settings to configure the connector, and it performs network requests for documented connector features.
- Routing hints flagged command execution, credential-to-host references, and a compressed documentation bundle, but the inspected execution path is consistent with launching Jcode and handling connector features.
