@promptowl/contextnest-community@1.7.0
ContextNest Community Edition — self-hosted context governance server for AI workflows. Commercial software by Promptowl LLC.
AI Security Review
scanned 4mo ago · by lpm-firewall-aiStatic inspection shows a legitimate server package with disclosed, package-aligned license/auth/telemetry calls and app data writes, not install-time malware or hidden payload behavior. The scanner's dangerous-delta and network/env findings map to normal server configuration and runtime features.
Static reason
No blocking static signals were detected.; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source
Trigger
Running the CLI/server and using license/admin/nest APIs.
Impact
Expected server persistence of app data and license settings; no unconsented install-time execution or exfiltration identified.
Mechanism
self-hosted context governance server with license validation, telemetry, database, and nest storage
AI rationale
Static inspection shows a legitimate server package with disclosed, package-aligned license/auth/telemetry calls and app data writes, not install-time malware or hidden payload behavior. The scanner's dangerous-delta and network/env findings map to normal server configuration and runtime features.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Clean at 90.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for AI clean decision
- dist/chunk-43DOX4LH.js sends license validation and telemetry to configurable PROMPTOWL_API_URL.
- dist/chunk-43DOX4LH.js persists PROMPTOWL_KEY to config.ENV_FILE_PATH on explicit /license/install.
- dist/index.js starts server immediately from bin/main and schedules license safety polling, drift scanning, and telemetry.
Evidence against
- package.json has no install/postinstall lifecycle; prepublishOnly only runs build before publishing.
- dist/index.js and dist/chunk-43DOX4LH.js behavior is a self-hosted ContextNest server with auth, nests, MCP, license, telemetry routes.
- Network endpoints are package-aligned: PromptOwl auth/device, user/me, license/validate, telemetry/ingest.
- No child_process, shell execution, eval/vm/Function, native binary loader, or obfuscated payload found in reviewed dist sources.
- File writes/deletes are scoped to DATA_ROOT/NEST_STORAGE_ROOT imports, nest deletion, database files, and configured .env settings.
- README.md and CONFIGURATION.md disclose license requirement, PromptOwl API URL, telemetry, and ENV_FILE_PATH persistence.
