## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 20 low-signal pattern(s) reviewed.

- **Verdict:** Clean
- **Product-default install policy:** Allow
- **Firewall policy:** No policy match
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** None published
- **Selected version:** 0.64.0
- **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: clean; recommendation: mark clean. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

eve 0.64.0 is a Vercel agent framework whose install metadata has no lifecycle hook and whose inspected auth, CLI, and provider code stays on the product endpoints or local comparison. Risky primitives are user-invoked agent tools rather than a hidden install chain.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 82.0%
- **Started:** 2026-09-22T19:44:45.594Z

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:** No attack surface was identified. Install metadata has no lifecycle hook, and credential or network use stays in user-invoked CLI login and provider clients.

- **Trigger:** No install-time or import-time attack trigger is present.

- **Impact:** No unconsented credential theft, remote payload execution, persistence, or agent control-surface mutation was established.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-09-22T19:47:35.014Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The package is an agent framework and CLI. Shell, file, and network behavior runs when the user invokes those tools.

- **Rationale:** eve 0.64.0 is a Vercel agent framework whose install metadata has no lifecycle hook and whose inspected auth, CLI, and provider code stays on the product endpoints or local comparison. Risky primitives are user-invoked agent tools rather than a hidden install chain.

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 82.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** package.json scripts are build and test commands only, and the manifest has no preinstall, install, or postinstall hook., bin/eve.js is the user-launched eve CLI and resolves dist/src/cli/run.js after the user runs it., Vercel model auth accepts OAuth endpoints only when the origin is https://vercel.com or https://api.vercel.com., Mock model fixtures export local prompt and tool-input helpers and do not send data., HTTP basic channel auth compares caller-supplied credentials locally with a timing-safe hash., The bundled OpenAI client defaults its base URL to https://api.openai.com/v1 and uses the caller OPENAI\_API\_KEY.

- **Evidence against:** historical-eve-0-30-8 aliases eve@0.30.8 only as a devDependency and is not a published runtime dependency., Shell, file, and network helpers are agent tools and CLI commands, not install-time execution.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to eve@0.64.0.

- Review the evidence and your use of eve@0.64.0 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.
