devez-vibe@1.7.48
Stable terminal UI for Codex and Claude Agent SDK
AI Security Review
scanned 2mo ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThis is an unconsented install-time mutation of AI-agent configuration, but it is a named first-party skill rather than a demonstrated broad takeover or exfiltration chain. It warrants a warning under the extension lifecycle policy.
Static reason
High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source
Trigger
npm installation runs postinstall.
Impact
A package installation adds persistent instructions to two AI-agent control surfaces; later explicit skill use can launch a Codex CLI subprocess.
Mechanism
Copies and prunes a bundled agent skill in user configuration directories.
AI rationale
This is an unconsented install-time mutation of AI-agent configuration, but it is a named first-party skill rather than a demonstrated broad takeover or exfiltration chain. It warrants a warning under the extension lifecycle policy.
Evidence
package.jsoninstall-skills.mjsskills/luna-loop/SKILL.md$CODEX_HOME/skills/luna-loop$CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR/skills/luna-loop
Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Suspicious at 89.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with medium false-positive risk.
Evidence for warning
- The package automatically runs a postinstall script.
- That script copies and prunes a package-supplied skill in both Codex and Claude user configuration directories.
- The installed skill can direct a Codex CLI subprocess when the user invokes it.
Evidence against
- The skill states that it is only used after an explicit user invocation.
- No source code showed secret collection, network exfiltration, remote payload retrieval, or self-dependency.
- The bridge removes two Anthropic credential variables before launching its SDK environment.
