AI Security Review
scanned 6d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe manifest has no lifecycle scripts, and the flagged Antigravity persistence requires explicit setup and separate activation. The changed confidential-session flow sends account proof with the user's token to the configured Agnoclast API as part of an explicitly launched, approval-gated feature.
Static reason
No blocking static signals were detected.; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source
Trigger
Setup and confidential-session behaviors run when a user invokes their respective commands.
Impact
The reviewed behavior supports the package's stated integration purpose; no unauthorized collection, account action, or persistence was identified.
Mechanism
Setup writes editor configuration; Antigravity wiring creates a watcher script and launch agent that is not activated automatically. Confidential sessions send account proof with the user's Agnoclast token to the configured Agnoclast API for approval.
AI rationale
The manifest has no lifecycle scripts, and the flagged Antigravity persistence requires explicit setup and separate activation. The changed confidential-session flow sends account proof with the user's token to the configured Agnoclast API as part of an explicitly launched, approval-gated feature.
Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Clean at 91.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for AI clean decision
- The manifest describes an AI assistant integration and declares no lifecycle scripts.
- Antigravity wiring is invoked through the explicit `setup` command.
- The generated Antigravity launch agent has `RunAtLoad` disabled.
- The confidential-session request sends account proof and the Agnoclast token to the configured Agnoclast API endpoint.
- Confidential-session launch writes a dedicated MCP configuration and starts the requested agent.
Evidence against
- The Antigravity adapter writes a sync script and launch agent, but the watcher requires a separate `launchctl load` to activate.
- The confidential-session flow is a user-invoked feature that isolates the session to one approved brain.
- No concrete malicious behavior was identified in the reviewed code.
