AI Security Review

scanned 12d ago · by lpm-firewall-ai

The inspected agent setup is initiated through the CLI and writes hooks for subsequent Claude Code sessions. No unconsented install-time agent mutation or unrelated credential forwarding was established; the setup capability warrants a warning.

Static reason

One or more suspicious static signals were detected.

Trigger

A user invokes the CLI’s Claude Code setup operation.

Impact

The Ouro hooks can run during later Claude Code sessions after setup.

Mechanism

The setup operation registers an MCP server and writes SessionStart, Stop, and PostToolUse hooks to the user’s Claude Code settings.

AI rationale

Evidence

~/.claude/settings.json~/.claude/CLAUDE.md

Network endpoints1

api.github.com/copilot_internal/user

Decision evidence

public snapshot

AI called this Suspicious at 79.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with medium false-positive risk.

Evidence for warning

The manifest exposes CLI entrypoints and declares no preinstall, install, or postinstall hook.
The Codex authentication helper reads the user’s local Codex auth file; the inspected GitHub token request goes to GitHub’s Copilot endpoint.
The CLI setup command registers an Ouro MCP server and writes hooks and instructions to Claude Code’s user configuration.
Plugin installation is implemented as a CLI operation using a supplied source.
The reviewed version-manager excerpts do not establish an automatic install chain.

Evidence against

Explicit CLI setup writes hooks into the Claude Code user configuration, enabling later hooks to run during agent sessions.
