Composable retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) for Node.js: grounded citations, evaluation, guardrails, hybrid retrieval and a CLI.
AI Security Review
scanned 6d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe flagged dynamic evaluation is part of a plugin runner that executes a supplied plugin inside an isolated, time-limited context. The inspected manifest and CLI show ordinary package and command startup, and the credential flow examined is for the matching provider connector.
Static reason
One or more suspicious static signals were detected.
Trigger
Provider requests occur when connector functionality is used; plugin evaluation occurs when the plugin runner is explicitly used.
Impact
No malicious or unauthorized impact was identified in the reviewed paths.
Mechanism
Provider API keys are used by their corresponding connectors. Supplied plugin functions are evaluated in the isolated runner with a timeout.
AI rationale
The flagged dynamic evaluation is part of a plugin runner that executes a supplied plugin inside an isolated, time-limited context. The inspected manifest and CLI show ordinary package and command startup, and the credential flow examined is for the matching provider connector.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Clean at 85.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for AI clean decision
- The package exports a library bundle and a separate CLI entry point.
- The listed prepare script installs Husky; prepublishOnly runs lint, tests, documentation validation, and ESM verification.
- The CLI entry point parses command-line arguments and runs the selected command.
- The bundle’s dynamic evaluation reconstructs a supplied plugin function and executes it with timeout protection in its isolated plugin runner.
- The Anthropic connector reads ANTHROPIC_API_KEY for its provider connector; its configured default API host is api.anthropic.com.
Evidence against
- The bundle contains dynamic evaluation, but the inspected code uses it to run supplied plugin code in an isolated, time-limited context.
- No install-time data collection or unrelated outbound collector was identified in the inspected paths.
