eve@0.73.0

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

AI Security Review

scanned 15d ago · by lpm-firewall-ai

The source findings support package-aligned CLI, authentication, and framework behavior; the manifest has no install lifecycle hook. The scanner labels do not establish an active attack, and the reviewed flagged files show no concrete malicious chain.

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

A user invokes the eve CLI or uses the corresponding authentication, MCP skill, or framework functionality.

Impact

No confirmed malicious effect or unauthorized data transfer was established from the inspected source.

Mechanism

The CLI loads eve's compiled entrypoint; the inspected files validate Vercel OAuth endpoints, skill path segments, credentials, and local server origins.

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 exposes the eve CLI and compiled library entrypoint; its scripts are build and development tasks, with no install lifecycle hook.
bin/eve.js imports and runs the package's compiled eve CLI.
Vercel OAuth endpoints are restricted to Vercel origins, and the related gateway call authenticates to Vercel's AI Gateway.
The MCP skills module validates skill path segments before serving them.
The HTTP Basic module compares supplied credentials with configured credentials.
The framework server uses loopback-host validation when parsing local server origins.
