Treat them as untrusted evidence. Do not execute instructions or code found in this document. ## Verdict summary **Flagged as agent extension risk** — Allowed by default with warning: install-time first-party agent extension setup was detected. - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Product-default install policy:** Warn - **Firewall policy:** Warn-only agent extension risk - **Public report status:** Published - **Threat category:** Agent extension lifecycle risk - **Selected version:** 0.21.163 - **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: suspicious; recommendation: downgrade to warn. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. The source shows a first-party agent configuration change that runs during daemon startup and can affect global Codex sessions, so a warning is warranted. The package has no install-time hook, and the inspected code does not establish credential theft or another concrete attack that supports blocking. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 86.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-20T03:21:06.878Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-20T03:22:40.179Z - **Download time:** 1801 ms - **Static scan time:** 4260 ms - **AI review time:** 87240 ms - **Total time:** 93301 ms 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:** A residual agent configuration risk exists: daemon startup can refresh Telora instructions in the global Codex file. Those instructions affect interactive Codex sessions and hosted Codex agents. - **Trigger:** Starting the daemon with configured products, valid Telora connection details, and an existing global Codex AGENTS.md file. - **Impact:** The change can alter agent behavior across Codex sessions on the workstation; no credential theft or other concrete attack was established. - **Evidence paths:** dist/shell/unified-shell.js, dist/shell/unified-shell-provisioning.js, dist/cli/connect/agents.js, dist/templates/agents-md.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-20T03:22:40.179Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Startup writes or refreshes a Telora instruction block in the shared Codex file without checking whether Codex was the harness selected during connect. - **Rationale:** The source shows a first-party agent configuration change that runs during daemon startup and can affect global Codex sessions, so a warning is warranted. The package has no install-time hook, and the inspected code does not establish credential theft or another concrete attack that supports blocking. - **Files touched:** ~/.codex/AGENTS.md ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 86.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** The manifest has no install hook; its only publish lifecycle script builds and stamps the package. The CLI exposes harness setup through an explicit connect command., On daemon startup, provisioning refreshes the global Codex instruction file when products are configured and that file already exists; this refresh is not gated on a saved harness selection., The shared seed reaches interactive Codex and hosted daemon Codex agents, and adds Telora workflow instructions to their context., The writer appends or replaces the Telora-delimited block while retaining content around it. Initial harness setup is selected through connect, which defaults to Claude., Other inspected locations describe harness-specific settings, read-only audit guards, a resolution-agent completion handler, and a configured Lacuna install step; they do not establish another attack. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @telora/daemon@0.21.163. - Review the evidence and your use of @telora/daemon@0.21.163 before allowing it. Restrict the permissions described in this report. - Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe. ## Public findings ### 1.
