First-party ReMCP local device runtime: filesystem, terminal, computer-use, browser, diagnostics and document tools over MCP.
AI Security Review
scanned 13d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiInspected source shows no install-time execution or concrete malicious behavior. The static flags correspond to ordinary runtime capabilities, a local D-Bus screenshot helper, and paired-agent usage metrics.
Static reason
One or more suspicious static signals were detected.
Trigger
The runtime starts when invoked by its command; individual file, screenshot, and device actions run through requested tools.
Impact
No confirmed attack surface was established in the inspected source.
Mechanism
Screenshot capture uses the local desktop portal or platform capture utilities. Usage metrics contain limited event fields and travel through the paired-agent connection.
AI rationale
Inspected source shows no install-time execution or concrete malicious behavior. The static flags correspond to ordinary runtime capabilities, a local D-Bus screenshot helper, and paired-agent usage metrics.
Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Clean at 94.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for AI clean decision
- package.json starts the runtime through a command and declares two runtime dependencies; it contains no install lifecycle hook.
- Screenshot capture is an explicit runtime tool, stores the image locally or returns it to the caller, and removes temporary captures by default.
- File writes take a caller-provided path and content and resolve the path through the runtime’s safety checks.
- The Linux screenshot portal imports the D-Bus dependency to request a local desktop screenshot.
- The inspected D-Bus dependency exposes its module entrypoint and uses ordinary Node system APIs; no package-specific payload behavior was identified in the inspected entrypoint.
- The MCP dependency exports standard server entrypoints; its stdio transport reads from standard input and writes to standard output, and the flagged event code filters and forwards subscribed MCP notifications.
- Telemetry is limited to whitelisted usage fields and is sent through the paired ReMCP runtime connection; its setting can be disabled.
