eve@0.70.2

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

AI Security Review

scanned 20d ago · by lpm-firewall-ai

The flagged source implements service-bound authentication, local credential verification, mock input construction, and framework server management. Direct inspection did not substantiate the scanner's malicious or exfiltration labels.

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

CLI invocation and configured model authentication activate the inspected behavior; no automatic install trigger was found.

Impact

No covert credential export, destructive action, or foreign agent control-surface mutation was established.

Mechanism

The code loads its compiled CLI, launches framework servers, and authenticates against intended Vercel services.

AI rationale

Decision evidence

public snapshot

AI called this Clean at 91.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.

Evidence for AI clean decision

package.json has no automatic install lifecycle hooks or runtime self-dependency.
bin/eve.js runs the compiled CLI when invoked directly; its build fallback targets the package workspace.
Vercel authentication restricts OAuth endpoints to Vercel origins and sends access validation requests to Vercel AI Gateway.
mock-model-fixtures.js constructs mock inputs and extracts command strings without executing them.
http-basic.js authenticates locally using hashed, timing-safe credential comparisons.
framework-eve-server.js launches Eve server processes and accepts only loopback server origins.
