## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 20 low-signal pattern(s) reviewed.

- **Verdict:** Clean
- **Product-default install policy:** Allow
- **Firewall policy:** No policy match
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** None published
- **Selected version:** 0.4.0
- **Selected version is latest:** No
- **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai)

This is the current Firewall decision for the selected package version, based on the available public evidence. Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions.

AI assessment: clean; recommendation: mark clean. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

This is a lifecycle-free CLI whose sensitive capabilities are activated through explicit commands and align with its local cloud-agent function. Static inspection found no concrete malicious behavior.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 84.0%
- **Started:** 2026-09-24T01:43:03.246Z

- **Total time:** 94154 ms

The recorded confidence comes from the underlying analysis. Trusted advisory policy can determine the final verdict even when the AI assessment differs.

## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** No malicious attack surface was identified. The package provides user-invoked local-agent capabilities.

- **Trigger:** The user runs the octoagent CLI, including its explicit run command.

- **Impact:** No unconsented install-time behavior, persistence, destructive action, or confirmed credential exfiltration was found.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-09-24T01:44:37.400Z

### AI review details

- **Review stage:** source\_first\_review

- **Mechanism:** The CLI starts local computer, browser, filesystem, recording, and screen-streaming components for the requested agent session.

- **Rationale:** This is a lifecycle-free CLI whose sensitive capabilities are activated through explicit commands and align with its local cloud-agent function. Static inspection found no concrete malicious behavior.

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 84.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** Package metadata exposes a CLI binary and contains no npm lifecycle scripts., The main entrypoint parses explicit command-line actions, including a run command., The inspected modules implement local computer, browser, filesystem, recording, and screen-streaming features consistent with the CLI's stated purpose; no install-time execution or concealed exfiltration was identified.

## Affected versions and remediation

- Review the evidence and your use of @octavus/agent@0.4.0 before allowing it. Restrict the permissions described in this report.
- Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe.
