The CLI performs agent, model, and optional cloud-sync operations only when the user runs it and configures/requests them. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 94.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-01T09:36:35.202Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-01T09:37:33.386Z - **Download time:** 510 ms - **Static scan time:** 159 ms - **AI review time:** 57513 ms - **Total time:** 58184 ms ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** No confirmed malicious install-time or import-time attack surface. The CLI performs agent, model, and optional cloud-sync operations only when the user runs it and configures/requests them. - **Trigger:** User runs the aegis CLI and invokes agent, cloud, memory, or login features. - **Impact:** User-authorized commands may access project context and configured model/cloud services; no covert exfiltration or persistence was confirmed. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/ensure-node-version.mjs, scripts/download-binary.mjs, bin/cli.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-01T09:37:33.386Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Runtime AI coding-agent execution and optional configured API synchronization. - **Rationale:** The only declared lifecycle hook is a Node-version gate. The flagged downloader is shipped but not invoked by lifecycle configuration; inspected runtime capabilities align with the advertised AI coding CLI. - **Files touched:** package.json, scripts/ensure-node-version.mjs, scripts/download-binary.mjs, bin/cli.js, ~/.aegiscode/config.json, ~/.aegiscode/memory/.claude-import-cursor.json - **Network endpoints:** https://registry.npmjs.org, https://api.openai.com/v1, https://api.anthropic.com/v1, https://aegiscloud.org/api/conversations ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 94.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** bin/cli.js is a large bundled coding-agent CLI with shell/tool execution and cloud-sync features., scripts/download-binary.mjs can fetch and chmod a release binary, but is not referenced by package.json lifecycle hooks. - **Evidence against:** package.json preinstall runs only scripts/ensure-node-version.mjs, which checks Node version and exits., No install hook downloads, executes a payload, harvests credentials, or changes AI-agent configuration., bin/cli.js network calls are runtime CLI functions for configured LLM providers, update checks, and user-configured cloud memory., Claude-history import and cloud upload are explicit CLI/command features, not install-time activity. ## Public findings ### 1.
