@viraatdas/rudder@2.14.81

A TUI for managing coding agents: run Claude Code, Codex and opencode side by side, each in its own isolated jj workspace.

AI Security Review

scanned 9d ago · by lpm-firewall-ai

The scanner's similarity signals did not establish attack behavior in the inspected source. The flagged runtime locations serve local agent-data discovery or explicit Rudder Cloud workspace operations, while the install hook performs ordinary jj setup.

Static reason

One or more suspicious static signals were detected.; source matched previously finalized malicious package; routed for review

Trigger

A user invokes a Rudder Cloud command or npm runs the postinstall hook.

Impact

No malicious impact was established from the inspected source.

Mechanism

Cloud commands stage workspace data for the Rudder Cloud API; postinstall checks for jj and may invoke brew or cargo to install it.

AI rationale

Network endpoints1

rudder-cloud-control.fly.dev

Decision evidence

public snapshot

AI called this Clean at 96.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.

Evidence for AI clean decision

The manifest runs scripts/postinstall.mjs after installation; that helper skips when jj is present and installs only the jj version-control tool when it is missing.
Cloud launch and workspace attach stage a snapshot for an explicit Rudder Cloud operation and send it to the Rudder Cloud API; the default endpoint belongs to that service.
The flagged cloud location stages Claude credentials locally; the handoff location identifies Claude's local projects directory, and the models location reads the local Codex model cache.
Other flagged code describes an explicitly installed schedule, read-only session collection, local backend selection, a loopback-only board, update caching, feedback redaction, and a propose-first improvement default.
