## Verdict summary
**Flagged — allowed with a warning** — Allowed by default policy, but 19 finding(s) warrant review before installing.

- **Verdict:** Suspicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Warn
- **Firewall policy:** Matched warn-list
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Remote Code Execution
- **Selected version:** 0.12.3
- **Selected version is latest:** No
- **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai)

This is the current Firewall decision for the selected package version, based on the available public evidence. Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions.

AI assessment: suspicious; recommendation: downgrade to warn. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The package contains a concrete remote coding-agent control surface with opt-in approvals, making it a dangerous capability. It has no registry install hook or covert payload execution, so the source does not establish malicious intent.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 91.0%
- **Started:** 2026-08-31T23:38:05.908Z

The recorded confidence comes from the underlying analysis. Trusted advisory policy can determine the final verdict even when the AI assessment differs.

## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** This is a remote-control daemon for local coding agents. A connected hub can send prompts, receive agent events, and request local session history.

- **Trigger:** A user runs the CLI, pairs or provides a credential, and keeps the daemon connected to a hub.

- **Impact:** A compromised or unauthorized hub account could drive local coding agents and access their session content; approvals are opt-in.

- **Evidence paths:** bin/agentlink.js, dist/daemon.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-08-31T23:39:17.128Z

### AI review details

- **Review stage:** source\_first\_review

- **Mechanism:** WebSocket-delivered prompts are passed to local ACP coding-agent processes.

- **Rationale:** The package contains a concrete remote coding-agent control surface with opt-in approvals, making it a dangerous capability. It has no registry install hook or covert payload execution, so the source does not establish malicious intent.

- **Files touched:** bin/agentlink.js, dist/bin.mjs, dist/daemon.js, ~/.agentlink/credential, ~/.agentlink/session, ~/.claude/projects, ~/.codex/sessions

- **Network endpoints:** wss://link.harmopath.com

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 91.0%

- **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for warning:** The user-invoked CLI starts a bundled daemon with hub credentials., The daemon accepts remote WebSocket run requests and forwards prompts to local coding-agent processes., Remote approval is disabled unless the user explicitly enables it., The daemon can read local Claude and Codex session archives and return their contents.

- **Evidence against:** package.json has no install or postinstall lifecycle hook., The capability is reached only by running the CLI and pairing or supplying credentials., No dynamic code evaluation or downloaded executable payload was found in the inspected entrypoints.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to alink-cli@0.12.3.

- Review the evidence and your use of alink-cli@0.12.3 before allowing it. Restrict the permissions described in this report.
- Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe.
