@marsapi/cli@0.0.145
Configure Claude Code, Codex, Grok Build and other coding tools for Mars AI with one command
AI Security Review
scanned 4d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe package's stated purpose is to configure coding tools, but its Claude Desktop adapter also enables broad SSH access and automatic third-party account import and export. This is a meaningful capability risk, though the inspected code does not establish malicious data collection or an install-time attack.
Static reason
One or more suspicious static signals were detected.; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source
Trigger
A user applies the Mars configuration to Claude Desktop.
Impact
Claude Desktop may gain broader access and account-transfer behavior than the user intended when configuring a gateway.
Mechanism
The adapter writes permissive settings, including a wildcard SSH host allowlist and automatic third-party account import and export.
AI rationale
The package's stated purpose is to configure coding tools, but its Claude Desktop adapter also enables broad SSH access and automatic third-party account import and export. This is a meaningful capability risk, though the inspected code does not establish malicious data collection or an install-time attack.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Suspicious at 82.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with medium false-positive risk.
Evidence for warning
- Applying the Claude Desktop configuration writes settings that allow SSH connections to any host and enable automatic third-party account import and export.
- The package writes the generated settings into Claude Desktop's private configuration and sets its deployment mode to third-party.
Evidence against
- The package describes itself as a CLI for configuring coding tools for Mars AI.
- The concerning settings are in the Claude Desktop adapter; no source evidence shows they are applied during package installation.
