## Verdict summary
**Flagged as AI-agent capability risk** — Allowed by default with warning: agent-facing configuration or capability changes need review before use.

- **Verdict:** Suspicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Warn
- **Firewall policy:** Warn-only AI-agent capability risk
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** AI-agent capability abuse
- **Selected version:** 0.37.0
- **Selected version is latest:** No
- **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai)

Review flagged AI-agent configuration or capability changes. 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.

## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** The optional ChatGPT integration accesses existing Codex credentials only when configured and refreshes them through OpenAI endpoints. No install-time attack surface is present.

- **Trigger:** Application explicitly configures and uses experimental\_chatgpt().

- **Impact:** Updates an existing local Codex login token file for the opted-in model integration.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, bin/eve.js, dist/src/public/models/openai/chatgpt/auth.js, dist/src/public/models/openai/chatgpt/transport.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-08-13T21:07:55.361Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** Codex credential refresh and persistence

- **Rationale:** No concrete malicious or unconsented install-time behavior was found. The explicit foreign Codex credential-store mutation is a real capability that warrants warning rather than blocking.

- **Files touched:** .codex/auth.json

- **Network endpoints:** https://chatgpt.com/backend-api/codex/responses, https://auth.openai.com/oauth/token

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 86.0%

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

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for:** Optional ChatGPT model integration reads Codex auth.json and refreshes credentials., Refresh writes updated tokens back to the existing Codex auth file., No npm preinstall/install/postinstall hooks are declared.

- **Evidence against:** Credential access is behind explicit experimental\_chatgpt model use, not install/import., Network targets are OpenAI/ChatGPT endpoints used for the configured model., CLI spawning is user-invoked workspace build/bootstrap behavior.
