EchoMem MCP bridge for cross-agent memory, local history import, and recall
AI Security Review
scanned 19d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe manifest has no npm install hook, and the flagged configuration writes occur through explicit product setup commands. Credential forwarding targets the configured EchoMem API, while onboarding guards local-history access with consent; the scanner's redirect claim was not supported by inspected source.
Static reason
No blocking static signals were detected.; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source
Trigger
The CLI or MCP server starts when a user or an agent client invokes it; setup and initialization are explicit commands.
Impact
No confirmed malicious impact. Setup funnel analytics sends filtered events to its collector; inspected code excludes credential, path, and transcript fields.
Mechanism
No install-time credential redirect or unconsented agent configuration mutation was found. Login targets the configured EchoMem API, and onboarding requires consent before local-history access.
AI rationale
The manifest has no npm install hook, and the flagged configuration writes occur through explicit product setup commands. Credential forwarding targets the configured EchoMem API, while onboarding guards local-history access with consent; the scanner's redirect claim was not supported by inspected source.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Clean at 95.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for AI clean decision
- The manifest points to the CLI entrypoint and lists development, test, and prepack scripts; it has no npm install lifecycle hook.
- The scorer utilities locate session JSONL files under the user's Codex sessions directory and process local session data.
- The monitor reads the local Codex session index, while migration discovers user-created Claude session files.
- Agent hook writes run through explicit setup commands and add EchoMem hooks to the selected agent's configuration.
- Login sends the supplied token to the configured EchoMem API, which defaults to the package's EchoMem service; onboarding gates local-history access on consent.
- Runtime updates install this package version into its managed directory with npm scripts disabled; analytics filters sensitive fields before sending setup events.
