API Spector private runner: monitor internal/local APIs the cloud cannot reach, with no inbound connections.
AI Security Review
scanned 21d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe runtime behavior matches a configured private API monitoring agent. The flagged VM and generated-function behavior is tied to configured request scripts and bundled schema validation, with no confirmed attack behavior.
Static reason
One or more suspicious static signals were detected.
Trigger
Run the CLI with APP_URL and AGENT_TOKEN or RUNTIME_TOKEN configured.
Impact
The inspected behavior supports API monitoring; no unrelated recipient or concealed payload execution was established.
Mechanism
The agent polls the configured service for monitor jobs, executes their requests and scripts, and posts results to that service.
AI rationale
The runtime behavior matches a configured private API monitoring agent. The flagged VM and generated-function behavior is tied to configured request scripts and bundled schema validation, with no confirmed attack behavior.
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 sets dist/index.cjs as both the CLI and main entrypoint.
- The runner uses operator-provided APP_URL and a runner token to poll the configured service for monitor jobs.
- For each monitor, the runner executes its configured setup and request, then posts monitoring results to APP_URL.
- The VM executes configured pre-request and post-request scripts in a sandbox; the sandbox disables timers.
- The bundled validator builds a function from generated schema-validation code, consistent with validation rather than a hidden payload loader.
