kubeagent@0.1.55
AI-powered Kubernetes management CLI
AI Security Review
scanned 25d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiInspected source shows a CLI without an install lifecycle hook, expected Kubernetes queries, service authentication, and limited first-run telemetry to its own API host. No concrete malicious behavior was identified.
Static reason
No blocking static signals were detected.; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source
Trigger
The user runs the kubeagent CLI; telemetry is initiated after command parsing and auth requests occur during login or account actions.
Impact
No confirmed attack surface was established; the observed requests support the CLI's stated functionality and the telemetry payload contains no auth token.
Mechanism
The CLI queries Kubernetes through kubectl, sends basic machine and version telemetry to api.kubeagent.net, and sends auth credentials to the configured server URL.
AI rationale
Inspected source shows a CLI without an install lifecycle hook, expected Kubernetes queries, service authentication, and limited first-run telemetry to its own API host. No concrete malicious behavior was identified.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Clean at 91.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for AI clean decision
- package.json exposes a CLI entrypoint and defines no install lifecycle hook.
- The required detector source queries Kubernetes workloads using kubectl and extracts workload image and label metadata.
- The CLI runs an update check before actions and sends first-run telemetry after parsing.
- Telemetry sends CLI version, platform, architecture, Node version, and a generated machine ID to the package's API host; no auth token is included in the payload.
- Auth requests send the supplied token to the configured server URL, with the default set to the package's API host; the URL can be overridden for self-hosted use.
