This remains warn-only unless evidence shows foreign-agent hijack through preinstall/install/postinstall, hidden persistence, exfiltration, remote code execution, or other concrete malicious behavior. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-19T08:48:37.679Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-19T08:49:57.075Z - **Download time:** 766 ms - **Static scan time:** 6084 ms - **AI review time:** 72545 ms - **Total time:** 79396 ms ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** On explicit CLI invocation, the package starts a remote-control daemon for local coding agents. It can read local Claude/Codex session archives and transmit session data to the configured hub; no install-time execution was found. - **Trigger:** User runs alink-cli, --no-tui, or the interactive UI to pair/start the daemon. - **Impact:** A user-authorized hub can access sensitive local coding-agent context and direct local agent activity. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, bin/agentlink.js, bin/agentlink-account.js, dist/ui.js, dist/daemon.js, dist/bin.mjs - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-19T08:49:57.075Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Remote hub-connected coding-agent control and session-history relay. - **Rationale:** The package is not malicious by the stated boundary because execution and pairing require user action and no install-time or stealthy control-surface mutation was found. It warrants a warning as a high-impact remote coding-agent and session-access capability. - **Files touched:** ~/.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:** Explicit CLI use launches a daemon that connects the machine to a remote hub., The daemon reads Claude/Codex session archives and returns their prompts/events over its hub protocol., The default remote endpoint is wss://link.harmopath.com; users may override it., The package advertises remote control of coding agents, a high-impact but user-invoked capability. - **Evidence against:** package.json has no preinstall, install, or postinstall hook., Credential/session files are stored with owner-only permissions., No remote asset decode-and-execute path was found in the inspected UI bundle; the scanner claim is unsupported., No unconsented foreign AI-agent configuration mutation was found. ## Public findings ### 1.
