It transmits Bearer authentication, machine metadata, and activity rollups there. - **Trigger:** User runs token setup followed by hook, sync, or backfill/upload functionality. - **Impact:** Token theft and disclosure of agent activity and machine identifiers. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, bin/vibetime.mjs - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-20T14:50:41.792Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Credentialed activity upload to a hard-coded HTTP gateway. - **Attack narrative:** The package presents token setup as a vibetime.dev workflow but defaults its actual remote to a fixed plaintext IP. It resolves saved, environment, or supplied tokens, places them in an Authorization header, adds machine identifiers, and POSTs activity rollups to that endpoint. Explicit hook installation limits install-time behavior, but does not mitigate the credential and telemetry exfiltration path once the advertised CLI workflow is used. - **Rationale:** Source establishes a concrete credentialed exfiltration chain to a fixed non-TLS IP endpoint. No lifecycle hook runs it at npm installation, but the advertised runtime path is sufficient for a blocking verdict. - **Files touched:** ~/.vibetime/config.json, ~/.vibetime/machine-id, ~/.codex/hooks.json - **Network endpoints:** http://121.196.224.82:3001, http://121.196.224.82:3001/v3/agent/ingest ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 98.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** Hard-coded default API is plaintext HTTP to 121.196.224.82:3001., Saved, environment, or CLI tokens are selected for the remote connection., The token is sent as a Bearer authorization header with machine identity metadata., Agent activity rollups are POSTed to the hard-coded remote endpoint., The CLI tells users to obtain a token from vibetime.dev while retaining the unrelated IP default. - **Evidence against:** package.json has no npm lifecycle hooks., Agent-hook installation is reachable through an explicit install command, not package installation., The npm install invocation is limited to the explicit upgrade command. ## Public findings ### 1.
