AI Security Review
scanned 4mo ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe reviewed source contains powerful governance/proxy and persistence features, but they are exposed as explicit CLI functionality and align with the package description rather than unconsented install/import-time behavior. I found no credential harvesting beyond user-provided Intutic auth, no hidden endpoint, and no concrete malicious payload.
Static reason
One or more suspicious static signals were detected.; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source
Trigger
Explicit CLI commands such as login, init, connect, exec, or daemon install.
Impact
Routes supported AI tool traffic through Intutic governance infrastructure and may persist a sync daemon when requested.
Mechanism
User-invoked control-plane sync, proxy environment injection, harness config writing, and optional service installation.
AI rationale
The reviewed source contains powerful governance/proxy and persistence features, but they are exposed as explicit CLI functionality and align with the package description rather than unconsented install/import-time behavior. I found no credential harvesting beyond user-provided Intutic auth, no hidden endpoint, and no concrete malicious payload.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Clean at 82.0% confidence as Benign with medium false-positive risk.
Evidence for AI clean decision
- dist/commands/connect.js can download a platform proxy binary from https://intutic.ai/proxy/v1.0.6 and spawn it during user-run connect.
- dist/commands/install-daemon.js installs user/system LaunchAgent or systemd units when daemon install is explicitly invoked.
- dist/harness/codex.js, dist/harness/cursor.js, and dist/harness/windsurf.js write AI harness proxy/rules/hook configs during sync.
Evidence against
- package.json has no install/preinstall/postinstall lifecycle hooks; bin only exposes dist/cli.js.
- dist/cli.js actions dynamically import command modules only after explicit CLI subcommands.
- Network calls target documented Intutic control/proxy endpoints or localhost dev mode, matching README purpose.
- Credential storage is user-initiated login/connect and uses ~/.intutic or OS keychain helpers, not broad harvesting.
- No import-time execution, hidden obfuscation, destructive file operations, or unsolicited exfiltration found in inspected files.
