Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions. AI assessment: clean; recommendation: mark clean. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. The lifecycle hook is package-aligned Prisma generation with fixed arguments, not a payload fetch or control-surface mutation. The flagged network and token handling implement an explicit, authenticated MCP client for the package's own server. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 96.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-04T09:29:31.759Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-04T09:30:07.692Z - **Download time:** 1021 ms - **Static scan time:** 1696 ms - **AI review time:** 33215 ms - **Total time:** 35933 ms The recorded confidence comes from the underlying analysis. Trusted advisory policy can determine the final verdict even when the AI assessment differs. ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** No confirmed malicious attack surface. Install-time execution is a fixed local Prisma client-generation command; runtime MCP traffic targets the user-selected Ocean Brain server and requires a token for writes. - **Trigger:** npm postinstall; explicit ocean-brain serve or ocean-brain mcp command - **Impact:** Creates application data directories and generated Prisma artifacts; no exfiltration or foreign control-surface mutation established. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/postinstall-prisma.mjs, dist/index.js, dist/mcp.js, server/dist/modules/mcp-auth.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-04T09:30:07.692Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** local Prisma generation and authenticated self-hosted note-service/MCP operation - **Rationale:** The lifecycle hook is package-aligned Prisma generation with fixed arguments, not a payload fetch or control-surface mutation. The flagged network and token handling implement an explicit, authenticated MCP client for the package's own server. - **Files touched:** scripts/postinstall-prisma.mjs, server/prisma/schema.prisma, dist/index.js, dist/mcp.js, server/dist/start.js - **Network endpoints:** http://localhost:6683 ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 96.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence against:** package.json postinstall only invokes bundled Prisma generation., scripts/postinstall-prisma.mjs uses execFileSync with fixed Prisma generate arguments., dist/index.js performs data-directory setup only after explicit ocean-brain serve., dist/mcp.js sends requests only to the user-selected Ocean Brain server., server/dist/modules/mcp-auth.js requires an enabled, valid bearer token for MCP writes., No foreign agent-config paths, credential harvesting, eval, or unconsented network endpoint found. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to ocean-brain@0.8.0. - Review the evidence and your use of ocean-brain@0.8.0 before allowing it. Restrict the permissions described in this report. - Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe. ## Public findings ### 1.
