AI Security Review

scanned 1mo ago · by lpm-firewall-ai

The package contains a real remote coding-agent and workspace-control capability, so it warrants a warning. It has no automatic install lifecycle hook and the inspected entrypoint contains no confirmed remote payload execution.

Static reason

High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.; source matched previously finalized malicious package; routed for review

Trigger

A user runs the CLI and starts its daemon.

Impact

A compromised or unauthorized hub account could read or alter files in the selected workspace and cause local coding-agent actions.

Mechanism

Authenticated remote tunnel exposing workspace and coding-agent operations.

AI rationale

Evidence

bin/agentlink.jsdist/bin.mjsdist/daemon.js~/.agentlink/credential~/.agentlink/session~/.codex/config.toml~/.claude/settings.json~/.claude.json

Network endpoints1

wss://link.harmopath.com

Decision evidence

public snapshot

AI called this Suspicious at 88.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with low false-positive risk.

Evidence for warning

The CLI starts a bundled daemon with a hub URL and machine credentials.
The daemon opens a remote tunnel and dispatches project read and write RPC operations.
The daemon reads local Codex and Claude configuration and session archives.

Evidence against

The manifest has no install, preinstall, or postinstall hook.
No remote payload decoding or dynamic code execution was found in the inspected entrypoint.
Workspace file operations enforce paths within the selected workspace.
