A guarded development extension exposes an agent that can modify the consumer project's authored agent source and install registry items. There is no automatic install-time execution. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 88.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-04T02:32:42.794Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-04T02:34:11.961Z - **Download time:** 770 ms - **Static scan time:** 16671 ms - **AI review time:** 71724 ms - **Total time:** 89167 ms ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** A guarded development extension exposes an agent that can modify the consumer project's authored agent source and install registry items. There is no automatic install-time execution. - **Trigger:** Running an Eve development agent with EVE\_DEV=1 and invoking the self-modification capability. - **Impact:** An agent session could change files under the consumer project's agent directory or add a selected integration. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, dist/src/self-modification/extension/extension.js, dist/src/self-modification/filesystem.js, dist/src/self-modification/extension/tools/registry\_add.js, dist/src/self-modification/extension/tools/search\_registry.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-04T02:34:11.961Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Development-only self-modifying agent and approved registry installer. - **Rationale:** The package contains a guarded, first-party self-modification extension capable of changing consumer project source and installing integrations. It has no npm lifecycle hook or evidence of unconsented automatic execution. - **Files touched:** agent/ - **Network endpoints:** eve.dev ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 88.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** The manifest registers a built-in self-modification extension., In development mode, the extension creates an agent intended to change authored source., The extension mounts the consumer project's agent directory as writable source., The registry tool can fetch an integration index and install a selected item after one approval. - **Evidence against:** package.json has no preinstall, install, or postinstall hook., The self-modification agent is guarded by EVE\_DEV=1., The registry installer is limited to eve dev and uses an approval gate., The reported host fingerprint is a Vercel OIDC user-agent in vendored code, not a package-wide collection routine. ## Public findings ### 1.
