At runtime the gateway can load configured plugins and provide local agent-control tools; no covert exfiltration chain was confirmed. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-17T01:54:38.515Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-17T01:55:30.164Z - **Download time:** 1264 ms - **Static scan time:** 10920 ms - **AI review time:** 39464 ms - **Total time:** 51649 ms ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** Installation automatically provisions an external Python runtime through pip. At runtime the gateway can load configured plugins and provide local agent-control tools; no covert exfiltration chain was confirmed. - **Trigger:** npm postinstall; later explicit gateway use/configuration. - **Impact:** Unconsented installation-time execution of third-party package-install logic and a broad dual-use local agent surface. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, bin/install-runtime.mjs, dist/services/code-graph/graphify-runtime.js, dist/plugins/openclaw-adapter.js, dist/tools/browser-tools.js, dist/tools/screenshot-tools.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-17T01:55:30.164Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** postinstall pip provisioning plus runtime agent tooling - **Rationale:** The automatic pip-based runtime install is an unresolved supply-chain risk and the package has broad agent capabilities. Source inspection did not substantiate the scanner's credential-exfiltration or malware claim. - **Files touched:** bin/install-runtime.mjs, dist/services/code-graph/graphify-runtime.js, ~/.jait/runtime/graphify ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** npm postinstall runs a runtime provisioner automatically., Provisioner creates a Python virtualenv and invokes pip to install graphifyy@0.9.30., The installed runtime is placed under ~/.jait/runtime/graphify and will execute third-party package-install logic during npm installation., Runtime exposes AI-agent browser, filesystem, terminal, and plugin-loading capabilities. - **Evidence against:** No source evidence of covert credential harvesting or exfiltration was found., Reviewed API-key requests are explicit web-search/provider calls using configured keys., The eval finding is a narrow dynamic Playwright import in an explicit screenshot tool, not an obfuscated payload. ## Public findings ### 1.
