@highflame/overwatch@2.1.1
IDE-agnostic security daemon for AI coding assistants. Evaluates prompts, tool calls, file operations, shell commands, and MCP usage in real time for Cursor, Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, Gemini CLI, OpenAI Codex, and Kiro.
AI Security Review
scanned 3d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe manifest has no install-time hook, and the flagged LLM credentials are passed to the local scanning helper. The daemon sends inspection payloads to its Cerberus service as part of the advertised security checks; no unrelated credential exfiltration or other malicious behavior was established.
Static reason
One or more suspicious static signals were detected.; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source
Trigger
The daemon runs when started; checks occur during its monitoring workflow.
Impact
Expected operation may send inspection data to the configured Highflame service; the inspected source did not establish credential theft or unrelated data collection.
Mechanism
Inspection payloads are posted to the configured Cerberus service. Configured LLM credentials are passed to the local ramparts helper for scanning.
AI rationale
The manifest has no install-time hook, and the flagged LLM credentials are passed to the local scanning helper. The daemon sends inspection payloads to its Cerberus service as part of the advertised security checks; no unrelated credential exfiltration or other malicious behavior was established.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Clean at 90.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for AI clean decision
- The only lifecycle script is prepublishOnly, which runs the build.
- The CLI passes a configured LLM key to the ramparts helper through its environment.
- The daemon sends inspection payloads to its configured Cerberus service as part of its security checks.
- The daemon starts when invoked as a command; the package describes it as an IDE security daemon.
Evidence against
- The inspected credential flow passes a user-configured provider key to the local helper; no source evidence showed it being sent to an unrelated host.
- The Cerberus request and inspection payload flow are consistent with the package’s stated purpose of evaluating prompts, tool calls, and file operations.
