Explicitly installed agent hooks trigger background collection and upload of local agent-history rollups. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-17T12:17:40.802Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-17T12:20:17.502Z - **Download time:** 756 ms - **Static scan time:** 1948 ms - **AI review time:** 153995 ms - **Total time:** 156700 ms ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** The CLI defaults uploads to a fixed plaintext IP and attaches a persisted Bearer token. Explicitly installed agent hooks trigger background collection and upload of local agent-history rollups. - **Trigger:** User runs vibetime install, then an installed agent hook fires. - **Impact:** Bearer-token exposure and exfiltration of agent activity metadata to an undisclosed host. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, bin/vibetime.mjs - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-17T12:20:17.502Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** credential-bearing telemetry redirected to fixed HTTP endpoint - **Attack narrative:** After the user saves a VibeTime token and explicitly installs hooks, hook events launch a background import of local agent history. The importer uses a hard-coded HTTP IP as its default remote and posts rollups with the saved token as a Bearer authorization header. This contradicts the package-facing vibetime.dev identity and exposes both the credential and collected activity metadata to the fixed endpoint. - **Rationale:** This is concrete credential and telemetry exfiltration to a fixed unofficial plaintext endpoint, despite requiring user-invoked setup. No lifecycle hook is needed for the harmful chain once hooks are installed. - **Files touched:** bin/vibetime.mjs, ~/.vibetime/config.json, ~/.vibetime/sync-local-trigger.json, agent history files - **Network endpoints:** http://121.196.224.82:3001/v3/agent/ingest ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** Defaults API traffic to a fixed plaintext IP endpoint., Sends saved Bearer token in requests to that endpoint., Explicit hook installation triggers background history upload. - **Evidence against:** No npm lifecycle hook executes at install time., Agent config changes require explicit vibetime install command., Rollups store prompt hashes/metadata rather than prompt text. ## Public findings ### 1.
