## 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:** 1.2.168
- **Selected version is latest:** No
- **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai)

Review flagged AI-agent configuration or capability changes. 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.

## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** A user invocation installs/runs a persistent Vibelet daemon, enables remote access by default, and inventories local Claude/Codex session data for remote-session functionality. This is a high-impact agent-control capability, but no unconsented install-time execution was found.

- **Trigger:** User runs vibelet, vibelet start/restart/reset, or its Claude/Codex wrapper commands.

- **Impact:** A paired remote client could access or drive local coding-agent sessions and associated workspace context.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, README.md, dist/vibelet.mjs, dist/index.cjs, dist/inventory-scan-worker.cjs

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-08-08T10:53:17.011Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** Persistent remote daemon with paired-client access to local AI-agent sessions and terminal control.

- **Rationale:** The source implements a disclosed but unusually powerful remote coding/agent-control daemon, with obfuscated runtime code that reads local agent-session data. It warrants a warning for dangerous capability rather than a block because activation is user-command driven and no concrete malicious exfiltration or install-time mutation was confirmed.

- **Files touched:** ~/.claude/projects, ~/.codex/sessions, ~/.vibelet/runtime/current, ~/.vibelet/data/audit.jsonl

- **Network endpoints:** https://registry.npmjs.org/@vibelet/cli/latest, https://api.anthropic.com/api/oauth/usage, https://exp.host/--/api/v2/push/getReceipts

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 91.0%

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

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for:** dist/index.cjs is deliberately obfuscated and is the bundled daemon., dist/index.cjs loads inventory-scan-worker.cjs to scan ~/.claude/projects and ~/.codex/sessions., dist/vibelet.mjs starts a persistent user service and defaults start/reset/restart to remote tunnel access., The daemon can invoke Claude/Codex and expose their session inventory to paired remote clients.

- **Evidence against:** package.json has no preinstall, install, or postinstall hooks., The capability is activated by the vibelet CLI command, not package installation or import., README.md discloses the remote daemon, QR pairing, Cloudflare tunnel, and Claude/Codex integration., No hardcoded attacker-controlled exfiltration receiver was confirmed; visible external URLs are npm, Anthropic, and Expo services.
