Agent-first filesystem backed by S3
AI Security Review
scanned 1mo ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe package automatically exports pseudonymous operational telemetry during normal daemon use. The fixed vendor destination and opt-out reduce the likelihood of malware, but the default disclosure is a real non-consensual data-exposure risk.
Static reason
High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.
Trigger
Running the daemon.
Impact
A user running the daemon exposes persistent pseudonymous usage and system metadata to the vendor.
Mechanism
The command-line bundle creates or reuses an anonymous installation identifier, gathers service statistics, and submits an event over HTTPS unless telemetry is disabled through environment settings.
AI rationale
The package automatically exports pseudonymous operational telemetry during normal daemon use. The fixed vendor destination and opt-out reduce the likelihood of malware, but the default disclosure is a real non-consensual data-exposure risk.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Suspicious at 90.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for warning
- The package exposes dist/cli.js as its command-line entry point.
- The command-line bundle enables telemetry unless an environment opt-out disables it.
- Starting the daemon invokes telemetry collection.
- Telemetry includes a persistent anonymous identifier, event metadata, operational counts, storage and embedding provider, operating system, and architecture, then posts it to a vendor endpoint.
Evidence against
- No npm preinstall, install, or postinstall hook is declared.
- The observed endpoint is fixed to the package vendor rather than caller-configurable.
