## Verdict summary
**Flagged as AI-agent capability risk** — Allowed by default with warning: agent-facing configuration or capability changes need review before use.

- **Verdict:** Suspicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Warn
- **Firewall policy:** Warn-only AI-agent capability risk
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** AI-agent capability abuse
- **Selected version:** 1.43.0
- **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 package has a guarded, explicit-user command that alters a local AI-agent configuration and can enable prompt telemetry. The endpoint and credential are caller supplied, so this is a warning-level capability rather than confirmed credential theft or malware.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 90.0%

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:** The explicit setup command changes the user's Codex telemetry configuration. No unconsented install-time attack surface was identified.

- **Trigger:** A user runs the Tsuga setup command for Codex.

- **Impact:** Future Codex telemetry may include user prompts and be sent to the caller-selected OTLP endpoint.

- **Evidence paths:** dist/cli.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-09-28T10:10:40.575Z

### AI review details

- **Review stage:** source\_first\_review

- **Mechanism:** The command writes the OTEL configuration under the user's Codex directory, replaces an existing telemetry table, and enables prompt telemetry by default.

- **Rationale:** The package has a guarded, explicit-user command that alters a local AI-agent configuration and can enable prompt telemetry. The endpoint and credential are caller supplied, so this is a warning-level capability rather than confirmed credential theft or malware.

- **Files touched:** ~/.codex/config.toml

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 90.0%

- **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for warning:** The manifest exposes a CLI and has no install lifecycle hook in its inspected scripts., An explicit setup command rewrites Codex OTEL configuration and can replace its existing telemetry table., Telemetry prompt inclusion defaults to enabled, although the command provides an opt-out.

- **Evidence against:** The configuration action is an explicit CLI setup command, not an npm install hook., The telemetry endpoint and ingestion key are supplied by the caller or environment.

## Affected versions and remediation
