## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 9 low-signal pattern(s) reviewed.

- **Verdict:** Clean
- **Product-default install policy:** Allow
- **Firewall policy:** No policy match
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** None published
- **Selected version:** 0.85.20
- **Selected version is latest:** No
- **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai)

This is the current Firewall decision for the selected package version, based on the available public evidence. Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions.

AI assessment: clean; recommendation: mark clean. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The package is a powerful but user-invoked CLI runtime for remote sessions and local LLM routing. Source inspection found no lifecycle execution, covert endpoint, or unconsented credential/config mutation chain.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 94.0%

The recorded confidence comes from the underlying analysis. Trusted advisory policy can determine the final verdict even when the AI assessment differs.

## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** No confirmed malicious attack surface. Credential handling, gateway startup, and MCP registration are explicit CLI capabilities rather than install- or import-time behavior.

- **Trigger:** User invokes h2a llm-mesh, account, or plugin commands.

- **Impact:** Can intentionally proxy configured credentials to provider APIs or configure selected MCP tools.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, dist/index.js, dist/llm-mesh.js, dist/llm-gateway-runtime/index.js, dist/llm-gateway-runtime/proxy-anthropic.js, dist/plugin.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-07-21T00:19:06.278Z

### AI review details

- **Review stage:** source\_first\_review

- **Mechanism:** User-directed credential gateway, remote-session tooling, and MCP configuration.

- **Rationale:** The package is a powerful but user-invoked CLI runtime for remote sessions and local LLM routing. Source inspection found no lifecycle execution, covert endpoint, or unconsented credential/config mutation chain.

- **Files touched:** dist/index.js, dist/llm-mesh.js, dist/llm-gateway-runtime/index.js, dist/llm-gateway-runtime/proxy-anthropic.js, dist/llm-gateway-runtime/proxy-openai.js, dist/plugin.js, ~/.codex/auth.json, ~/.claude/.credentials.json, ~/.gemini/oauth\_creds.json, ~/.sentropic/llm-mesh.json

- **Network endpoints:** https://auth.openai.com/oauth/token, https://oauth2.googleapis.com/token, https://api.openai.com, https://api.anthropic.com, http://localhost:3002

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 94.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** dist/llm-mesh.js can read local Codex, Claude, and Gemini credentials., dist/plugin.js can modify agent MCP configuration, but only through explicit plugin commands., dist/llm-mesh.js starts a local gateway and proxies user-configured provider requests.

- **Evidence against:** package.json contains no preinstall, install, or postinstall hooks., dist/index.js runs CLI setup only when invoked as its entrypoint., Credential enrollment is an explicit \`llm-mesh enroll\` action; stored mesh files use mode 0600., Gateway defaults target provider endpoints or localhost; no covert third-party exfiltration endpoint was found.

## Affected versions and remediation

## Public findings

### 1. Medium: Network
- **Category:** Source
- **Confidence:** 75.0%

Package source references network APIs.

### 2. Medium: Environment Vars
- **Category:** Source
- **Confidence:** 75.0%

Package source references environment variables.

### 3. Low: Filesystem
- **Category:** Source
- **Confidence:** 70.0%

Package source references filesystem APIs.

### 4. Critical: Credential Exfiltration
- **Category:** Source
- **Confidence:** 90.0%
- **Path:** dist/llm-mesh.js
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@sentropic/h2a-runtime@0.85.20/dist/llm-mesh.js>)

Source appears to send environment or credential material to an external endpoint.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```javascript
L20: import { fileURLToPath } from "node:url";
L21: import { spawn } from "node:child_process";
L22: import { randomBytes } from "node:crypto";
...
L26: export function sentropicDir() {
L27: return join(homedir(), ".sentropic");
L28: }
...
L51: try {
L52: return JSON.parse(readFileSync(path, "utf8"));
L53: }
...
L251: // hardcoded). Absent them, the mesh-owned transport performs the refresh.
L252: const clientId = process.env["GOOGLE_OAUTH_CLIENT_ID"];
L253: const clientSecret = process.env["GOOGLE_OAUTH_CLIENT_SECRET"];
```

### 5. Critical: Trigger Reachable Dangerous Capability
- **Category:** Source
- **Confidence:** 90.0%
- **Path:** dist/llm-mesh.js
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@sentropic/h2a-runtime@0.85.20/dist/llm-mesh.js>)

A package entrypoint or install-time lifecycle script reaches a source file with blocking dangerous behavior.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```javascript
Trigger-reachable chain: manifest.main -> dist/index.js -> dist/llm-mesh.js
L20: import { fileURLToPath } from "node:url";
L21: import { spawn } from "node:child_process";
L22: import { randomBytes } from "node:crypto";
...
L26: export function sentropicDir() {
L27: return join(homedir(), ".sentropic");
L28: }
...
L51: try {
L52: return JSON.parse(readFileSync(path, "utf8"));
L53: }
...
L251: // hardcoded). Absent them, the mesh-owned transport performs the refresh.
L252: const clientId = process.env["GOOGLE_OAUTH_CLIENT_ID"];
L253: const clientSecret = process.env["GOOGLE_OAUTH_CLIENT_SECRET"];
```

### 6. Low: High Entropy Strings
- **Category:** Supply Chain
- **Confidence:** 55.0%

Package source contains high-entropy string patterns.

### 7. Low: Url Strings
- **Category:** Supply Chain
- **Confidence:** 65.0%

Package source contains URL literals.

### 8. Medium: Structural Risk Force Deep Review
- **Category:** Artifact Inventory
- **Confidence:** 85.0%

Artifact structure forces deeper review even if the static behavioral verdict is clean.

### 9. Critical: Previous Version Dangerous Delta
- **Category:** Supply Chain
- **Confidence:** 93.0%
- **Path:** dist/llm-mesh.js
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@sentropic/h2a-runtime@0.85.20/dist/llm-mesh.js>)

This package version adds a dangerous source file absent from the previous stored version; route for source-aware review.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```javascript
matchType = previous_version_dangerous_delta
matchedPackage = @sentropic/h2a-runtime@0.85.19
matchedIdentity = npm:QHNlbnRyb3BpYy9oMmEtcnVudGltZQ:0.85.19
similarity = 0.942
summary = stored previous version shares package body but lacks this dangerous source file
```
