@octavus/agent@1.0.9

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 2mo ago · by lpm-firewall-ai

The static signals arise from bundled automation components, including standard schema code and explicit local MCP services. There are no lifecycle hooks or confirmed stealthy payload, harvesting, or exfiltration behavior.

Static reason

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

Trigger

A user runs the octoagent CLI with configured Octavus credentials.

Impact

The configured agent can use the capabilities the user explicitly starts and authorizes.

Mechanism

Configured remote-agent automation through local MCP services.

AI rationale

Decision evidence

public snapshot

AI called this Clean at 86.0% confidence as Benign with medium false-positive risk.

Evidence for AI clean decision

The user-invoked CLI connects to an operator relay with a computer token.
The bundled filesystem MCP server can modify files within client-provided allowed roots.
The browser extension accepts commands only over a localhost WebSocket.
The computer component imports child-process execution APIs for its automation runtime.
The browser MCP launcher binds its local server to localhost.

Evidence against

package.json has no preinstall, install, postinstall, or other lifecycle script.
The only package entry point is the octoagent CLI.
No hidden payload reconstruction or unconsented credential exfiltration was confirmed.
Network control is initiated by an explicit CLI run using configured credentials.
