Install-time browser provisioning can download Chromium and, when npm runs as root on Linux, request its system dependencies. At runtime the bridge can persist agent MCP/skill configuration and manage a local service through authenticated or explicit user actions. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 87.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-09T02:09:43.799Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-09T02:11:02.351Z - **Download time:** 1259 ms - **Static scan time:** 1708 ms - **AI review time:** 75583 ms - **Total time:** 78552 ms ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** Install-time browser provisioning can download Chromium and, when npm runs as root on Linux, request its system dependencies. At runtime the bridge can persist agent MCP/skill configuration and manage a local service through authenticated or explicit user actions. - **Trigger:** npm postinstall; later authenticated bridge API requests or explicit awsb service commands - **Impact:** System dependency installation and persistent service or agent-extension configuration on the host - **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/ensure-bin-executable.mjs, scripts/ensure-playwright-browser.mjs, dist/routes/instance.js, dist/services/instance-init-service.js, dist/services/cli-commands.js, dist/services/auto-register.js, dist/config.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-09T02:11:02.351Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Playwright provisioning plus authenticated runtime/agent-management bridge - **Rationale:** Not malicious on inspected source, but the install-time root dependency provisioning and runtime agent/service control are material capabilities that merit a warning. - **Files touched:** dist/index.js, ~/.cache/ms-playwright, ~/.aws-bridge/config.json, ~/.aws-bridge/binding.json, ~/.aws-bridge/runtime-tokens.properties, ~/.aws-bridge/instances/\/state.json, /etc/systemd/system/awsb.service, ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.agentsworkstudio.awsb.plist - **Network endpoints:** https://registry.npmjs.org/aws-runtime-bridge/latest ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 87.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** package.json runs postinstall., scripts/ensure-playwright-browser.mjs downloads Chromium; as root it requests Playwright --with-deps., dist/routes/instance.js exposes authenticated install-tools, init-instance, update, and restart operations., dist/services/instance-init-service.js writes MCP/skill state for Claude, Codex, OpenCode, and Acode., dist/services/cli-commands.js installs persistent systemd, launchd, or Windows services on explicit CLI command. - **Evidence against:** Postinstall only chmods its own entrypoint and installs declared Playwright browser support., Browser install behavior is documented in README.md and has an opt-out environment variable., Scheduler registration requires configured opt-in/userKey; endpoints use configured scheduler URLs., Agent configuration writes occur through authenticated runtime routes, not npm lifecycle., No hidden endpoint, credential harvesting, arbitrary remote payload loader, or unconsented foreign agent-control write was confirmed. ## Public findings ### 1.
