# codiedev@0.9.77 npm security report

## Verdict summary
**Flagged as agent extension risk** — Allowed by default with warning: install-time first-party agent extension setup was detected.

- **Verdict:** Suspicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Warn
- **Firewall policy:** Warn-only agent extension risk
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Agent extension lifecycle risk
- **Selected version:** 0.9.77
- **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.

No malicious credential flow was found: the doctor token goes to the configured Codiedev backend, and Anthropic key mentions are CI examples. However, connected session hooks automatically install or update team packs in agent CLIs, so the default agent-extension lifecycle warrants a warning.

## Latest scan

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:** Connected session-start hooks automatically install or update team packs in detected agent CLIs, which can change their skills and hooks.

- **Trigger:** A connected user starts an agent session; syncing runs in the background about hourly unless disabled with CODIEDEV\_PACK\_AUTOSYNC=0.

- **Impact:** Team-assigned pack content can alter agent behavior and add hooks without a separate install command at that session start. No malicious payload or credential theft was identified.

- **Evidence paths:** dist/hook.js, dist/packs/sync.js, dist/commands/pack.js, dist/packs/install.js, dist/packs/harnesses.js, dist/packs/paths.js, dist/commands/doctor.js, package.json

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-30T21:42:13.468Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The hook spawns \`codiedev pack install --quiet\`; the installer writes downloaded pack manifests into local plugin directories and invokes detected agent CLIs to install or update plugins.

- **Rationale:** No malicious credential flow was found: the doctor token goes to the configured Codiedev backend, and Anthropic key mentions are CI examples. However, connected session hooks automatically install or update team packs in agent CLIs, so the default agent-extension lifecycle warrants a warning.

- **Files touched:** ~/.codiedev/packs/plugins/\<slug\>/, ~/.codiedev/packs/portable/plugins/\<slug\>/, ~/.cursor/plugins/local/codiedev-\<slug\>/

- **Network endpoints:** cli.codiedev.com

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 90.0%

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

- **Intent class:** Unknown

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for warning:** Connected session-start hooks launch a background pack sync; disconnected installs skip it., The default background action runs \`codiedev pack install --quiet\`; the package documents hourly syncing and an opt-out., Pack manifests are written to local plugin directories, then detected agent CLIs receive plugin install or update commands., The doctor command sends the Codiedev token to the configured backend's token-validation endpoint.

- **Evidence against:** The only lifecycle script is \`prepublishOnly: tsc\`; there is no install hook., Anthropic API key references are CI examples that pass the key to the Claude CLI, not to a Codiedev endpoint., The source does not show credentials being sent to a foreign host or unrelated code being executed.
