@octavus/agent@1.0.17

Octavus Agent CLI - run one of your cloud Octavus Agents on a machine you control, using that machine as the agent's computer. The agent lives in the cloud (fully configured and observable); the local machine only supplies the computer and the trigger.

AI Security Review

scanned 29d ago · by lpm-firewall-ai

Static inspection found a user-invoked automation CLI with local MCP helpers, not an install-time or covert attack chain. No lifecycle hook, self-dependency, or concrete exfiltration behavior was identified.

Static reason

One or more suspicious static signals were detected.; source matched previously finalized malicious package; routed for review

Trigger

A user runs the declared CLI or an MCP component.

Impact

No unconsented install-time execution, persistence, credential harvesting, or destructive behavior was found.

Mechanism

The CLI connects to its configured operator service; browser bridging uses a loopback WebSocket and MCP tools use local standard input/output.

AI rationale

Decision evidence

public snapshot

AI called this Clean at 90.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.

Evidence for AI clean decision

The package declares a CLI entry point and no npm lifecycle hooks.
The main CLI obtains an API key and connects its computer session to the configured operator service only after the user invokes it.
The bundled MCP components use standard input/output or explicit allowed directories, and the browser bridge uses loopback networking.
The code MCP limits full-file reads of oversized files.
