⚠ Under review

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 6d ago · by lpm-firewall-ai

The install hook appears limited to installing the declared Jujutsu prerequisite, and the inspected usage request sends a saved Codex token to chatgpt.com. Cloud snapshot code stages agent credentials and configuration, but the inspected source does not resolve its full destination and consent path; further review is needed before deciding whether that behavior is benign.

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

A user invokes the cloud workflow that stages a home snapshot.

Impact

Agent credentials or configuration could be exposed to a remote service if the unresolved transfer path sends the staged snapshot without appropriate consent.

Mechanism

The package reads local agent files and writes Claude credentials into the staged home directory; the reviewed excerpts do not show the full subsequent transfer path.

AI rationale

Evidence

dist/cloud.js

Decision evidence

public snapshot

AI called this Manual Review at 82.0% confidence as Unknown with medium false-positive risk.

AI review observations

package.json declares a postinstall hook; it checks for Jujutsu and, when absent, attempts installation through Homebrew or Cargo.
Cloud functionality reads local agent credential files and stages Claude credentials and agent configuration into a home snapshot; the inspected excerpts do not establish the full upload destination or consent path.
The usage code sends a saved Codex access token to the ChatGPT usage endpoint, and the board exposes quota data through a local loopback server.

Evidence against

The install hook contains no inspected project mutation or unrelated script-approval changes.
The inspected credential-quota request targets chatgpt.com, the service associated with the saved Codex token.
