@remcp/runtime@0.2.192
First-party ReMCP local device runtime: filesystem, terminal, computer-use, browser, diagnostics and document tools over MCP.
AI Security Review
scanned 7d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe package has no install lifecycle hooks, and the flagged system capability is an explicitly invoked MCP tool with safeguards for the runtime and its parent agent. Default telemetry is disclosed, limited to usage details, and sent through the paired agent; no malicious behavior was identified.
Static reason
One or more suspicious static signals were detected.; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source
Trigger
The runtime starts when launched; individual device actions run when requested through MCP tools.
Impact
No unauthorized credential transfer, install-time contact, or automatic destructive action was identified.
Mechanism
Startup telemetry is limited to tool usage details and is sent through the paired ReMCP agent. Screenshot capture loads the D-Bus dependency on demand; process termination requires a tool call with a PID.
AI rationale
The package has no install lifecycle hooks, and the flagged system capability is an explicitly invoked MCP tool with safeguards for the runtime and its parent agent. Default telemetry is disclosed, limited to usage details, and sent through the paired agent; no malicious behavior was identified.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Clean at 92.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for AI clean decision
- package.json has start, check, and test scripts, with no install lifecycle hook.
- Telemetry is announced at runtime startup, can be disabled, is limited to tool usage details, and travels through the paired ReMCP agent.
- Process termination is exposed as an MCP tool that takes a PID; its handler refuses to terminate the runtime or its parent agent.
- Screenshot portal code loads the declared D-Bus dependency when a screenshot is requested.
Evidence against
- Telemetry is enabled by default unless the user disables it.
- The kill_process tool can terminate arbitrary operating-system processes when called.
- The runtime uses filesystem and process capabilities as part of its documented local device tools.
