## 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:** 0.1.37
- **Selected version is latest:** No
- **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai)

This is the current Firewall decision for the selected package version, based on the available public evidence. Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions.

AI assessment: suspicious; recommendation: downgrade to warn. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

This is an explicit-user-command agent-control and telemetry capability, not an unconsented npm lifecycle attack. The hard-coded non-TLS endpoint and broad agent-history collection justify a warning.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 91.0%
- **Started:** 2026-07-27T20:56:21.673Z

The recorded confidence comes from the underlying analysis. Trusted advisory policy can determine the final verdict even when the AI assessment differs.

## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** Explicit installation modifies supported AI-agent hook/plugin configurations. Triggered hooks read local agent activity and upload aggregated rollups to the configured VibeTime service; this is user-invoked rather than install-time behavior.

- **Trigger:** User runs \`vibetime install\` and later agent hook events invoke \`vibetime hook\`.

- **Impact:** Persistent agent integrations can transmit project/activity metadata and file-path/tool summaries to the configured remote service.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, bin/vibetime.mjs

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-07-27T20:57:07.058Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** agent-hook persistence plus local-history telemetry upload

- **Rationale:** This is an explicit-user-command agent-control and telemetry capability, not an unconsented npm lifecycle attack. The hard-coded non-TLS endpoint and broad agent-history collection justify a warning.

- **Files touched:** ~/.vibetime/config.json, ~/.vibetime/session-context, ~/.vibetime/backfill-state.json, ~/.codex/hooks.json, ~/.claude/settings.json

- **Network endpoints:** http://121.196.224.82:3001/v3/agent/ingest, https://registry.npmjs.org/@yhong91/vibetime/latest

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 91.0%

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

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for warning:** bin/vibetime.mjs explicitly installs hooks/plugins into Codex, Claude, OpenCode, and Pi configs., Installed hooks launch \`vibetime hook\`, which starts a detached local sync runner., Backfill reads agent session/history files and POSTs rollups to a hard-coded HTTP IP endpoint., Uploaded rollups include project, tool names, display file paths, machine hostname, and token-backed headers.

- **Evidence against:** package.json has no preinstall, install, or postinstall lifecycle hook., Config mutation requires the explicit \`vibetime install\` command; no import-time installation exists., The npm install call is only reachable through the explicit \`vibetime upgrade\` command., Source contains no remote-code loader, eval, credential harvesting, or destructive filesystem behavior.
