Ory plugin for Codex: scaffolding skills, a local Ory instance, and authentication, authorization, and audit for every tool call
AI Security Review
scanned 4d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe package enables reova analytics and supplies an endpoint, causing install-time telemetry to run automatically. The event can include an email domain, an identifying detail, so this merits a warning rather than a clean verdict.
Static reason
No blocking static signals were detected.
Trigger
The dependency’s postinstall hook runs during installation.
Impact
The install discloses package and runtime metrics plus an organizational identifier without a separate user consent prompt.
Mechanism
It reads the email setting from ~/.gitconfig, extracts its domain, adds it to an install metrics payload, and sends the payload to the configured analytics endpoint.
AI rationale
The package enables reova analytics and supplies an endpoint, causing install-time telemetry to run automatically. The event can include an email domain, an identifying detail, so this merits a warning rather than a clean verdict.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Suspicious at 96.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with medium false-positive risk.
Evidence for warning
- The package enables reova analytics and configures https://telemetry.reo.dev/data.
- reova declares a postinstall hook that automatically starts its tracker.
- The tracker collects install metrics and includes the domain from the installer’s git email configuration.
- The tracker sends the collected payload to the configured endpoint.
Evidence against
- The payload does not include the full email address, file paths, dependency list, or environment variables.
- The setup CLI’s marketplace and plugin changes run only when its executable entry point is invoked.
