CLI tool for managing AI coding assistants (Claude Code, Codex, OpenClaw, Hermes, AtomCode, Grok Build) with one unified config
AI Security Review
scanned 8d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe first-party plugin setup creates residual agent-extension risk because applying Claude Code configuration can install plugins without a separate confirmation. Credential forwarding is conditional on the configured destination, and the default is package-aligned; no concrete malicious behavior was established.
Static reason
One or more suspicious static signals were detected.
Trigger
The user applies VibeCLI configuration to Claude Code, runs a CLI command that sends telemetry, or explicitly requests a doctor report.
Impact
Plugins are added to the user’s Claude Code environment. If the base URL points to an unintended server, that server may receive the saved API key; the inspected source does not establish malicious use or theft.
Mechanism
The Claude adapter invokes the plugin installer during configuration loading. The API request helper adds the saved key as a bearer token and resolves the request against the configured base URL.
AI rationale
The first-party plugin setup creates residual agent-extension risk because applying Claude Code configuration can install plugins without a separate confirmation. Credential forwarding is conditional on the configured destination, and the default is package-aligned; no concrete malicious behavior was established.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Suspicious at 84.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with medium false-positive risk.
Evidence for warning
- Applying Claude Code configuration calls the plugin installer when a Claude executable is found; the setup flow reaches this configuration application.
- The installer adds a marketplace and installs plugins that are not already installed or recorded, without a separate plugin-level confirmation.
- The request helper reads the saved API key and attaches it as a bearer token to a POST resolved against the active base URL; the key is saved by the authentication command.
- The base URL can be set with --base and accepts arbitrary HTTP or HTTPS URLs; the packaged default is VibeAPI’s gateway.
- Telemetry is enabled by default unless its setting disables it. CLI commands record telemetry, and a separate doctor --report action can upload a diagnostic report.
Evidence against
- The configured default gateway belongs to the package’s VibeAPI brand, and telemetry has a disable setting.
- The inspected sources show official Claude plugin installation and conditional credential forwarding, but no malicious plugin payload or confirmed credential theft.
