@trycodev/cli@0.9.0
Secure CoDev cloud coding-agent authentication CLI
AI Security Review
scanned 6d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe mirror fits the package’s collaboration purpose and interactive setup discloses the sharing, but noninteractive setup skips that prompt while keeping mirroring enabled by default. Because transcript lines are forwarded without visible client-side redaction, this creates a meaningful risk of sensitive chat content being shared without a clear consent step.
Static reason
High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source
Trigger
`codev setup` with a noninteractive input and a configured Claude or Codex agent; later, a hooked session that uses a CoDev workspace tool.
Impact
Prompts, replies, and tool output may contain sensitive project or account data; this package shows no client-side redaction before upload.
Mechanism
Noninteractive setup inherits the default enabled setting. The session hook starts a background uploader that posts transcript lines to the configured CoDev API.
AI rationale
The mirror fits the package’s collaboration purpose and interactive setup discloses the sharing, but noninteractive setup skips that prompt while keeping mirroring enabled by default. Because transcript lines are forwarded without visible client-side redaction, this creates a meaningful risk of sensitive chat content being shared without a clear consent step.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Suspicious at 88.0% confidence as Unknown with medium false-positive risk.
Evidence for warning
- Mirror sharing defaults to enabled unless its saved setting is explicitly false.
- In noninteractive setup, the consent prompt is skipped and the enabled default is returned.
- After a linked Claude or Codex session hook runs, it starts the transcript uploader.
- The uploader sends transcript lines to the configured CoDev native-sessions API using the CoDev login token.
- The inspected client uploader forwards transcript lines without visible client-side secret redaction.
Evidence against
- The package describes chat mirroring as a collaboration feature and says prompts, replies, and tool output go to CoDev.
- Interactive setup asks whether to enable mirroring, and users can turn it off with `codev mirror off`.
- The package has no install lifecycle scripts; transcript upload requires configured hooks and a session linked to a CoDev workspace.
