@melandlabs/opencontext@0.9.0

OpenContext — single-package facade that bundles the contracts, memory-store, retrieval, loop engine, and agent runtime. Install once, get every capability.

AI Security Review

scanned 1mo ago · by lpm-firewall-ai

This is a suspicious dangerous-capability package, not confirmed malware. The scanner's persistence claim is not supported by the inspected source, but the unrestricted agent execution default and external credential-bearing requests warrant a warning.

Static reason

High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source

Trigger

Run the CLI with reasoning enabled, or invoke the Codex agent runtime.

Impact

A supplied LLM credential and prompt are sent to the selected provider; a user-invoked agent may modify its selected workspace.

Mechanism

User-configured LLM requests and local agent CLI execution.

AI rationale

Evidence

dist/cli/opencontext.js.opencontext-codex-images

Network endpoints1

openrouter.ai/api/v1

Decision evidence

public snapshot

AI called this Suspicious at 82.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with medium false-positive risk.

Evidence for warning

The optional reasoning mode reads an API key from the environment and defaults its LLM endpoint to OpenRouter.
That mode sends the API key as a Bearer authorization header in a network request.
The agent runtime can launch the local Codex CLI and selects unrestricted access on macOS for its workspace-write mode.

Evidence against

package.json has no preinstall, install, postinstall, or other lifecycle hook.
The network request requires the user to enable reasoning and provide an API key; no automatic credential collection or persistence was found.
The OpenRouter use is an explicit LLM-provider feature, not a hidden redirect.
