`r5d-browser start` updates the client automatically. It checks the authenticated environment's selected release once a minute and stages verified packages privately using npm. After the current action finishes, it reconnects a new CLI process to the same
AI Security Review
scanned 13d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiSource inspection found no install hook or confirmed malicious behavior. The flagged launcher behavior is consistent with starting an existing Chrome installation, and registration sends credentials to the configured service origin.
Static reason
High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source
Trigger
A user invokes the browser command or its runtime API.
Impact
The inspected behavior supports browser automation and service registration; no unrelated credential recipient or malicious payload execution was established.
Mechanism
The launcher resolves a local Chrome executable and starts it; registration sends a bearer token to the configured service origin.
AI rationale
Source inspection found no install hook or confirmed malicious behavior. The flagged launcher behavior is consistent with starting an existing Chrome installation, and registration sends credentials to the configured service origin.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Clean at 83.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for AI clean decision
- The manifest exposes a browser command and declares ordinary runtime dependencies; it has no install lifecycle hook.
- The browser registration request sends its token to the configured service origin, and its caller passes that origin and token into registration.
- Chrome resolution checks an explicit path, an environment override, or standard Chrome locations; the inspected launcher source does not download a browser executable.
- Navigation matching is a bounded URL-pattern check, and the runtime imports browser automation components.
- The inspected dependency excerpts show browser automation, schema validation, locale data, and protocol code; they do not establish an attack.
Evidence against
- Static hints flag evaluation and downloading, but the inspected launcher source resolves an existing Chrome executable and starts it; those hints alone do not establish malicious behavior.
