AI Security Review

scanned 3mo ago · by lpm-firewall-ai

The package has meaningful AI-agent configuration and reporting capabilities, but source inspection found no concrete malicious install-time behavior or stealth execution. Treat as a warning for explicit agent-control and telemetry risk, not a block.

Static reason

One or more suspicious static signals were detected.; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source

Trigger

User runs `monomind platforms setup`, `monomind init`, or the CLI crashes.

Impact

User-approved agent hooks/configuration changes; crash metadata may be sent to GitHub when authenticated.

Mechanism

Explicit AI-agent configuration setup and default crash reporting

AI rationale

Decision evidence

public snapshot

AI called this Suspicious at 89.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with low false-positive risk.

Evidence for warning

Explicit `platforms setup` writes Codex/Cursor SessionStart hooks and shared agent skills.
CLI crash handler invokes default-on crash reporting, using GitHub auth/token to file redacted stack traces.
`init` explicitly creates Claude settings/helpers and starts a local watcher.

Evidence against

`postinstall` only deletes `node_modules/._*`; it does not alter agent configuration.
Agent-control writes are reachable only through explicit CLI `init` or `platforms setup` commands.
No hidden install-time network, credential harvesting, or remote payload execution was found.
Flagged README reviewer-manipulation text was not substantiated by source search.
