EchoMem MCP bridge for cross-agent memory, local history import, and recall
AI Security Review
scanned 19d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiSource inspection found no install lifecycle hook and no confirmed attack. Agent hook writes are tied to CLI setup behavior, while the reviewed data handling concerns local session files.
Static reason
No blocking static signals were detected.; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source
Trigger
A user invokes an EchoMem CLI setup or update command; normal server behavior starts when an MCP client launches the entrypoint.
Impact
No confirmed unauthorized credential transfer, install-time agent control change, or other attack impact was established.
Mechanism
Setup can write EchoMem hook commands into detected agent profiles. The inspected hook and session code processes local session information; the package manifest has no install lifecycle hook.
AI rationale
Source inspection found no install lifecycle hook and no confirmed attack. Agent hook writes are tied to CLI setup behavior, while the reviewed data handling concerns local session files.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Clean at 88.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for AI clean decision
- package.json defines build and prepack scripts, with no install lifecycle hook; the executable entrypoint is dist/index.js.
- Agent hooks are added to detected Codex or Claude Code profiles by setup code, and the CLI runs those actions through explicit subcommands.
- The hook writes invoke EchoMem commands, and the inspected HUD and scorer locations read local session metadata or files.
- The runtime updater installs a versioned EchoMem runtime; the inspected server code reads local Codex session data.
- The inspected source locations show no confirmed credential disclosure to an unrelated recipient or unconsented install-time agent configuration change.
