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:** 93.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-08T17:38:38.786Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-08T17:40:11.064Z - **Download time:** 759 ms - **Static scan time:** 7398 ms - **AI review time:** 84120 ms - **Total time:** 92278 ms ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** An explicit vibelet invocation installs a persistent daemon, defaults to remote pairing, and exposes coding-session/file-control capabilities to paired clients. It scans Claude/Codex session data; no install-time execution or confirmed unconsented exfiltration was found. - **Trigger:** User runs vibelet, vibelet start, or its Claude/Codex takeover commands. - **Impact:** A paired remote client can access sensitive coding-session context and perform file/session actions. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, README.md, dist/vibelet.mjs, dist/index.cjs, dist/inventory-scan-worker.cjs - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-08T17:40:11.064Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Persistent remote daemon with agent-session and file-control capabilities. - **Rationale:** This is a real high-risk agent-control capability, not a confirmed supply-chain malware chain: activation requires an explicit CLI command and no lifecycle hook exists. Warn rather than block because source did not prove unconsented data theft or foreign AI-agent control-surface mutation at install time. - **Files touched:** ~/.vibelet, ~/.claude, ~/.codex, ~/.claude.json - **Network endpoints:** https://registry.npmjs.org/@vibelet/cli/latest, https://exp.host/--/api/v2/push/send, https://api.anthropic.com/api/oauth/usage ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 93.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for:** dist/index.cjs scans ~/.claude and ~/.codex session stores., dist/index.cjs exposes paired WebSocket actions that read/write files and control coding sessions., dist/index.cjs contains a helper that sets Claude project trust flags in ~/.claude.json., dist/vibelet.mjs installs a persistent user daemon and enables remote access by default., dist/index.cjs is heavily obfuscated, impeding audit. - **Evidence against:** package.json has no npm lifecycle scripts., Daemon installation and remote access require an explicit vibelet command., Observed outbound endpoints are npm update, Expo push, and Anthropic usage APIs; no proven secret-exfiltration receiver. ## Public findings ### 1.
