This remains warn-only unless evidence shows foreign-agent hijack through preinstall/install/postinstall, hidden persistence, exfiltration, remote code execution, or other concrete malicious behavior. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 92.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-06T15:28:50.737Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-06T15:29:59.245Z - **Download time:** 1021 ms - **Static scan time:** 7418 ms - **AI review time:** 60068 ms - **Total time:** 68508 ms ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** A user invocation installs a persistent Vibelet daemon, defaults to remote tunnel access, and exposes scanned Claude/Codex session data and control functions to paired clients. No install-time execution occurs. - **Trigger:** User runs vibelet, vibelet start, restart, or reset. - **Impact:** A paired remote client can access and control sensitive coding-agent session context. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, dist/vibelet.mjs, dist/index.cjs, dist/inventory-scan-worker.cjs - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-06T15:29:59.245Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Persistent remote coding-agent daemon with external session inventory scanning. - **Rationale:** This is a dangerous remote agent-control capability with broad local session access, not a confirmed install-time malware chain. The absence of lifecycle hooks and the explicit CLI trigger make a publish block unsupported. - **Files touched:** ~/.vibelet/runtime/current/dist/index.cjs, ~/.vibelet/pairings.json, ~/.vibelet/tunnel.json, ~/.codex/sessions, ~/Library/Application Support/Claude - **Network endpoints:** https://registry.npmjs.org/@vibelet/cli/latest, \*.trycloudflare.com ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 92.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** dist/index.cjs is heavily obfuscated and is the daemon executed by the CLI., The daemon enumerates Claude history and ~/.codex session archives., Default/start commands install a persistent user daemon and enable a Cloudflare tunnel by default., The daemon exposes paired remote clients to coding-agent session and approval-control features. - **Evidence against:** package.json has no preinstall/install/postinstall lifecycle hook., Persistence starts only after the user runs the vibelet CLI., Paired-client authentication uses stored token hashes; no third-party credential-exfiltration host was confirmed. ## Public findings ### 1.
