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:** 91.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-08T09:55:39.360Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-08T09:56:47.987Z - **Download time:** 758 ms - **Static scan time:** 7767 ms - **AI review time:** 60101 ms - **Total time:** 68627 ms ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** A user-invoked command installs a persistent local daemon and, by default, exposes it through a Cloudflare Tunnel. The daemon can access Codex and Claude session data for remote-session functionality. - **Trigger:** Run \`vibelet\`, \`vibelet start\`, restart, or reset. - **Impact:** A paired remote client can obtain powerful access to local coding-agent session data and controls. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, README.md, dist/vibelet.mjs, dist/index.cjs, dist/inventory-scan-worker.cjs - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-08T09:56:47.987Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** persistent remote agent-session daemon - **Rationale:** This is not a concrete install-time malware chain: there are no lifecycle hooks and persistence requires a user command. However, its obfuscated agent-session harvester plus default persistent remote daemon is a high-risk dual-use capability that warrants a warning. - **Files touched:** ~/.vibelet/runtime/current, ~/.vibelet/daemon.pid, ~/.codex/sessions, ~/Library/LaunchAgents/dev.vibelet.daemon.plist, ~/.config/systemd/user/vibelet-daemon.service - **Network endpoints:** https://registry.npmjs.org/@vibelet/cli/latest ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Unknown - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** dist/vibelet.mjs installs a persistent per-user launchd/systemd/detached daemon when the CLI is run., The default CLI path enables a Cloudflare Tunnel and exposes a daemon intended for remote coding sessions., dist/inventory-scan-worker.cjs is deliberately obfuscated and reads Codex/Claude session locations, including ~/.codex/sessions., dist/index.cjs starts the inventory worker to enumerate agent-session metadata and history. - **Evidence against:** package.json has no preinstall, install, postinstall, or other lifecycle script., Persistence and remote access are reached only through the user-invoked vibelet CLI., No hardcoded non-package data-exfiltration endpoint was found in the inspected worker; it uses worker-thread messaging., The documented purpose is a remote coding-session daemon, consistent with its local agent-session access. ## Public findings ### 1.
