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 flagged credential flow supports confidential-brain access through Agnoclast's own API, and the flagged Antigravity persistence is written without automatic activation. The manifest declares no install lifecycle hooks, and the reviewed source shows no malicious behavior. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 91.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-30T02:00:58.209Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-30T02:01:51.150Z - **Download time:** 503 ms - **Static scan time:** 2270 ms - **AI review time:** 50167 ms - **Total time:** 52941 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:** No attack identified; the reviewed network and configuration behavior supports the package's MCP and confidential-brain integration. - **Trigger:** The MCP server checks confidential-brain access at startup; a tool call naming a confidential brain requests a seat token. The Antigravity adapter writes its artifacts when invoked by install. - **Impact:** No unauthorized collection, foreign credential transfer, or active persistence was identified. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-30T02:01:51.150Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Requests use the Agnoclast service API. The Antigravity launch agent is not set to run at load and requires manual activation. - **Rationale:** The flagged credential flow supports confidential-brain access through Agnoclast's own API, and the flagged Antigravity persistence is written without automatic activation. The manifest declares no install lifecycle hooks, and the reviewed source shows no malicious behavior. - **Files touched:** ~/.cortex/confidential-sessions/\, ~/.cortex/antigravity-sync.sh, ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.cortex.antigravity-sync.plist - **Network endpoints:** agnoclast.com ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The manifest has no install, preinstall, or postinstall hook; its npm scripts are release, promote, and rollback., Confidential session credentials are sent to the Agnoclast API when a tool call names a confidential brain; the source identifies agnoclast.com as the canonical service host., The Antigravity launch agent is written with RunAtLoad disabled, and the adapter tells the user to load it manually. - **Evidence against:** The server reads AI account proof and sends it with the user's Agnoclast token for confidential-brain access., The package can write an Antigravity script and launch-agent plist when its install adapter is run. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @theronap/agnoclast-mcp@0.9.279. - Review the evidence and your use of @theronap/agnoclast-mcp@0.9.279 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.
