When the launched application is used to manage Claude sessions, it can add local workspace hooks and optionally relay voice audio using local Claude credentials. - **Trigger:** npm postinstall; later, starting managed Claude sessions or enabling voice dictation. - **Impact:** Unexpected background activity and modification of consumer workspaces; credential use is gated but sensitive. - **Evidence paths:** scripts/postinstall.js, dist/hooks-config.js, dist/web/routes/voice-routes.js, dist/web/voice-stream.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-01T20:00:18.249Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Automatic server launch, Git-hook write, and runtime Claude workspace-hook injection. - **Rationale:** The package has a meaningful install-time side effect and powerful runtime agent integration, so it should not be silently published. The inspected source does not establish the concrete malicious lifecycle chain required for a block. - **Files touched:** .git/hooks/pre-commit, \/.claude/settings.local.json, ~/.claude/.credentials.json ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 88.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for:** The postinstall script automatically starts a detached web-server process unless CI or an opt-out variable is set., Postinstall writes an executable pre-commit hook into the consumer checkout when a .git directory exists., At runtime, managed Claude sessions install command hooks into workspace .claude settings; the setting defaults to enabled., The voice feature reads Claude OAuth credentials and sends the bearer token only to its speech relay when the operator enables voice dictation. - **Evidence against:** No runtime dependency on another aicodeman release was found in the manifest., Service installation is exposed through an explicit CLI command rather than an install lifecycle hook., Voice dictation is disabled until the operator enables it, and the route applies host and origin checks. ## Public findings ### 1.
