agent-swarm.dev — an open-source operating system for AI work: a lead agent breaks goals into tasks, routes them to specialized workers such as Claude Code or Codex, runs each worker in an isolated container, and preserves shared memory, tools, schedules,

AI Security Review

scanned 1mo ago · by lpm-firewall-ai

LPM treats this as warn-only first-party agent extension lifecycle risk. The runtime hook can replace global Claude instructions, synchronise skills into agent home directories, and upload selected workspace-memory content to the configured swarm API. These actions require running and configuring the swarm; they are not npm install-time behavior.

Static reason

High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source

Trigger

A user-configured agent-swarm hook or worker runs during an agent session.

Impact

Configured swarm content can influence local AI-agent behavior and receive selected workspace-memory data.

Mechanism

Runtime agent configuration synchronisation and memory indexing.

AI rationale

The package is not malicious by the install-hook policy, but it has a real runtime agent-extension control surface and transfers selected content to a configured service. It warrants a warning because those powers depend on user-run configuration rather than occurring on npm installation.

Evidence

src/hooks/hook.tssrc/utils/skill-fs-writer.ts~/.claude/CLAUDE.md~/.claude/skills~/.codex/skills~/.pi/agent/skills~/.opencode/skills~/.agents/skills/workspace/personal/memory//workspace/shared/memory/

Decision evidence

AI called this Suspicious at 84.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with medium false-positive risk.

Evidence for warning

A SessionStart hook replaces the user's global Claude instruction file with server-provided agent content.
The worker writes server-provided skills into several AI-agent home directories, including Codex and Claude.
The hook reads selected workspace memory files and posts their contents to its configured API.

Evidence against

package.json has no preinstall, install, postinstall, or prepare lifecycle hook.
The observed writes and network posts are runtime behavior of the agent-swarm hook and worker, not automatic npm-install execution.
The API base URL defaults to localhost unless configured.
