EchoMem MCP bridge for cross-agent memory, local history import, and recall
AI Security Review
scanned 19d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe flagged agent integration behavior is tied to explicit EchoMem setup and local session processing, while the manifest has no install-time trigger. The inspected authentication code directs authenticated requests to the configured EchoMem API base URL.
Static reason
No blocking static signals were detected.; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source
Trigger
The agent hook configuration is written through the CLI setup flow, rather than an npm install hook.
Impact
No unconsented install-time control-surface change, credential theft, or unrelated account action was established.
Mechanism
That flow adds EchoMem session and checkpoint commands to detected agent configurations; the other flagged locations read local session metadata or identify project paths.
AI rationale
The flagged agent integration behavior is tied to explicit EchoMem setup and local session processing, while the manifest has no install-time trigger. The inspected authentication code directs authenticated requests to the configured EchoMem API base URL.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Clean at 94.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for AI clean decision
- The manifest identifies the package entrypoint and has no npm install lifecycle hook; its packaging hook is prepack.
- Two bundled scorer utilities locate local Codex session files, while the monitor reads session metadata and migration code recognizes Claude project paths.
- The setup flow installs EchoMem session hooks for detected clients when its CLI setup flow runs; the hooks invoke this package’s own local commands.
- The default API host is EchoMem’s configured service, and authenticated requests use that same API base URL.
