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

Source inspection found an ordinary jj installer and user-invoked cloud functionality, with no concrete malicious behavior. The flagged agent paths support local discovery or the explicit cloud workflow, so the source does not establish an attack surface.

Static reason

One or more suspicious static signals were detected.; source matched previously finalized malicious package; routed for review; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source

Trigger

Package installation triggers the jj setup hook; an explicit cloud launch triggers snapshot creation and upload.

Impact

No malicious impact was identified; the cloud transfer supports the requested remote-work feature.

Mechanism

The inspected hook checks for jj and installs it if needed. Cloud launch stages credentials for the remote worker and sends the snapshot to Rudder’s control plane.

AI rationale

Decision evidence

public snapshot

AI called this Clean at 97.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.

Evidence for AI clean decision

The manifest’s postinstall hook invokes a script that checks for jj and only attempts to install it when missing.
Cloud code stages agent credentials for a cloud snapshot and uploads that snapshot to the Rudder control plane during an explicit cloud launch.
The handoff and model paths inspect local conversation and model data for their respective features.
Scheduled improvement is installed by an explicit command, and its session collector reads registered project records.
The inspected utility, backend, daemon, update-check, and feedback code performs ordinary CLI functions without establishing an attack chain.
