Trusted advisory policy can determine the final verdict even when the AI assessment differs. ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** A paired Claude session can collect local Claude credentials and send them to Codeam's credential-sync service. No install-time attack was identified. - **Trigger:** Run the CLI with a paired Claude session that has a plugin authentication token. - **Impact:** Claude session credentials may be forwarded to a third-party or operator-selected endpoint. - **Evidence paths:** dist/index.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-29T02:55:13.119Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The session starts a watcher-backed credential sync that reads local credentials and posts them to an API base that can be overridden by an environment variable. - **Rationale:** The package contains an active credential-forwarding path for a separate service's local session credentials, with an unrestricted API-base override. Its install hook is display-only, so blocking the package is not supported by the inspected source. - **Files touched:** .claude/.credentials.json, .config/claude/.credentials.json - **Network endpoints:** https://api.codeagent-mobile.com/api/plugin/agents/claude\_code/credential-sync ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for warning:** The CLI reads Claude credential files and can also query the macOS keychain for those credentials., It serializes the credential into a POST body sent to a Codeam credential-sync endpoint., Starting a paired Claude session automatically enables the credential synchronization routine when a plugin token exists., The API base can be replaced through an environment variable without a destination allowlist., The install hook only prints usage instructions; it does not perform the credential sync. - **Evidence against:** The credential sync is tied to a paired Claude session and uses a plugin authentication token., The default API host is Codeam's service rather than an unrelated hidden host. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to codeam-cli@2.76.3. - Review the evidence and your use of codeam-cli@2.76.3 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. ## Public findings ### 1.
