## Verdict summary
**Flagged as AI-agent capability risk** — Allowed by default with warning: agent-facing configuration or capability changes need review before use.

- **Verdict:** Suspicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Warn
- **Firewall policy:** Warn-only AI-agent capability risk
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** AI-agent capability abuse
- **Selected version:** 1.0.3
- **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: suspicious; recommendation: downgrade to warn. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

Not malicious: the remote-control behavior is explicit, user-triggered, and aligned with the package’s stated function. Warn because it deliberately grants a cloud agent powerful local execution and file-access capabilities.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 91.0%
- **Started:** 2026-08-26T04:47:18.988Z

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:** An explicit CLI run connects a cloud agent to local shell, filesystem, browser, and computer-control services. This is a disclosed but high-impact remote-agent capability; no stealth or install-time attack was found.

- **Trigger:** User configures an API key and runs octoagent.

- **Impact:** The configured remote agent can act within the selected workspace and available local browser/computer environment.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, README.md, dist/index.js, dist/filesystem-mcp.mjs, dist/browser-extension-mcp.js, dist/computer-mcp/dist/index.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-08-26T04:48:27.744Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** Authenticated cloud-agent dispatch to local MCP shell/filesystem/browser services.

- **Rationale:** Not malicious: the remote-control behavior is explicit, user-triggered, and aligned with the package’s stated function. Warn because it deliberately grants a cloud agent powerful local execution and file-access capabilities.

- **Files touched:** dist/index.js, dist/filesystem-mcp.mjs, dist/browser-extension-mcp.js, dist/computer-mcp/dist/index.js

- **Network endpoints:** https://octavus.ai

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 91.0%

- **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for warning:** User-invoked CLI provisions cloud-directed filesystem, shell, computer-use, and browser MCP services., The CLI creates an authenticated remote session with the configured platform, enabling remote agent control of those local services.

- **Evidence against:** package.json has no preinstall, install, postinstall, or prepare hook., README documents explicit API-key setup and an explicit run command for a user-selected workspace., No hidden loader, credential harvesting, or unconsented install-time mutation was confirmed., The flagged Function calls are bundled AJV schema code generation, not a package payload loader.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to @octavus/agent@1.0.3.

- Review the evidence and your use of @octavus/agent@1.0.3 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.
