First-party agent-harness provider capability plugin for Rig.

AI Security Review

scanned 2d ago · by lpm-firewall-ai

No confirmed malicious attack surface was found. The high-risk primitives are agent-harness functionality: isolated runtime setup, controlled shell/tools, provider launch, optional steering, and bundled native helper binaries.

Static reason

High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.

Trigger

User/runtime invocation of Rig agent, Pi, or tool-router commands; not npm install.

Impact

Can execute provider commands and workspace-scoped tools when explicitly run inside Rig runtime; no install-time or hidden exfiltration behavior observed.

Mechanism

package-aligned agent harness and runtime tool router

Rationale

Static inspection found dangerous capabilities, but they are explicit Rig agent/runtime features with no lifecycle trigger, hidden persistence, credential exfiltration, or unconsented AI-agent control-surface mutation. Scanner persistence findings map to runtime known_hosts/profile/settings/artifact writes and package-aligned tool configuration.

Decision evidence

public snapshot

AI called this Clean at 82.0% confidence as Benign with medium false-positive risk.

Evidence for block

Ships native executables under native/*/rig-shell and native/*/rig-tools.
dist/src/agent-harness/agent-wrapper.js launches provider commands and polls optional steering from RIG_SERVER_URL/RIG_SERVER_BASE_URL.
dist/src/tooling/claude-router.js exposes read/write/edit/grep/shell runtime tools via configured MCP server.

Evidence against

package.json has no lifecycle scripts; entrypoints are exported modules and user-invoked agent tooling.
dist/src/agent-harness/rig-agent.js refuses unguarded shell when controlled-bash is unavailable and verifies runtime context/manifest before agent commands.
dist/src/tooling/claude-router.js constrains shell workdir inside RIG_TASK_WORKSPACE and resolves tools from RIG_RUNTIME_BIN_DIR.
dist/src/pi-command.js network use is npm registry search for the explicit rig pi search command.
Secrets handling loads named runtime config into the isolated agent environment; no hardcoded exfiltration endpoint or credential upload found.
