eve@0.67.1

Filesystem-first framework for durable backend AI agents that run anywhere.

AI Security Review

scanned 27d ago · by lpm-firewall-ai

Static inspection of package.json and the required entry, auth, fixture, and Next server files shows a user-invoked agent framework with no install lifecycle, no self-dependency chain, and credentials sent only to checked Vercel OAuth hosts. Shell and file tools exist as explicit agent capabilities, not as covert install behavior.

Static reason

High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.; source matched previously finalized malicious package; routed for review; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source

Trigger

No automatic install or import trigger runs an attack.

Impact

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

Mechanism

Lifecycle hooks are absent, OAuth stays on Vercel hosts, basic auth is local comparison, and the Next helper only uses loopback origins.

AI rationale

Decision evidence

public snapshot

AI called this Clean at 82.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.

Evidence for AI clean decision

package.json is eve 0.67.1 with build and test scripts only, no preinstall, install, or postinstall hook, and runtime dependencies are nitro and undici rather than a self-dependency.
bin/eve.js resolves a local dist CLI entrypoint under the package root when the eve command is invoked.
Vercel model auth refreshes tokens only against vercel.com or api.vercel.com after checking the OAuth endpoint origin.
mock-model-fixtures.js selects fixture replies from in-memory prompt text and does not perform network or file side effects.
HTTP basic auth compares a caller-supplied username and password locally with a timing-safe hash and does not forward the credential.
The Next helper accepts only loopback server origins and starts the local eve binary for development.

Evidence against

The framework includes user-invoked shell, file, and model-auth code, which is expected for an agent runtime and is not an install-time control-surface write.
