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. LPM treats this as warn-only first-party agent extension lifecycle risk. The connector injects a package-owned OpenCode plugin into configuration for managed launches. No malicious install-time attack surface was confirmed. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 87.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-28T05:42:07.500Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-28T05:44:48.639Z - **Download time:** 518 ms - **Static scan time:** 3463 ms - **AI review time:** 157158 ms - **Total time:** 161139 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:** The connector injects a package-owned OpenCode plugin into configuration for managed launches. No malicious install-time attack surface was confirmed. - **Trigger:** A managed Cotal OpenCode launch imports the connector and starts its server plugin. - **Impact:** This is a guarded agent-extension capability. The inspected code did not establish unconsented persistence, broad foreign configuration mutation, or credential exfiltration. - **Evidence paths:** dist/index.js, dist/plugin/index.js, dist/serve.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-28T05:44:48.639Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The entrypoint supplies in-memory OpenCode configuration with the bundled plugin and allow permission; the plugin requires a managed-session identity. - **Rationale:** The code implements a guarded first-party agent extension and has no install lifecycle hook. Per policy, that setup warrants a non-blocking warning even though no concrete malicious behavior was established. - **Network endpoints:** http://127.0.0.1 ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 87.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for warning:** The package metadata exposes an import entrypoint and lists no npm install lifecycle hook., The connector creates OpenCode launch configuration that enables its bundled plugin and sets OpenCode permission to allow., The bundled plugin stays inactive unless the process has a managed-session identity, then removes launch material from its environment., The serving shim binds its OpenCode endpoint to loopback only. - **Evidence against:** No preinstall, install, or postinstall hook was found., No unconsented configuration-file write or external credential export was established in the inspected paths. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @cotal-ai/connector-opencode@0.56.0. - Review the evidence and your use of @cotal-ai/connector-opencode@0.56.0 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.
