AI Security Review
scanned 1mo ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe evidence supports a guarded cross-agent session-resume capability, not malware or an install-time attack. Warn so users can assess the cross-agent handoff behavior.
Static reason
High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source
Trigger
An empty MCode session with the resume feature available; use requires the resume action.
Impact
This creates a cross-agent session-continuation capability and may expose prior workspace handoff content to MCode after user activation; no credential export or configuration mutation was confirmed.
Mechanism
It reads recent Codex session metadata, restricts matches to the same canonical workspace, and passes a selected session identifier to the bundled resume feature.
AI rationale
The evidence supports a guarded cross-agent session-resume capability, not malware or an install-time attack. Warn so users can assess the cross-agent handoff behavior.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Suspicious at 87.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for warning
- The install hook only checks whether the optional SQLite native module loads.
- The launcher searches Codex session files under the user Codex home and filters them to the same canonical workspace.
- The search runs only when the bundled resume feature is available and the MCode session is empty.
- A user-triggered resume submits the selected Codex session identifier to the bundled resume feature.
- The bundled reader limits accepted sessions to Codex CLI or VS Code and requires an exact working-directory match.
Evidence against
- No source evidence showed credential collection, network export, destructive actions, or automatic modification of Codex configuration.
