Multi-agent orchestration layer for OpenAI Codex CLI
AI Security Review
scanned 19d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe install hook does not run setup for local installs, and the inspected setup behavior is an explicit installation of this package's own local plugin. I classify the first-party agent extension setup as a warning-level capability; the inspected evidence does not support a block.
Static reason
High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source
Trigger
A user runs `omx setup`.
Impact
The local agent extension becomes available to Codex; no malicious effect was established from the inspected sources.
Mechanism
Setup materializes the packaged OMX plugin in the Codex plugin cache.
AI rationale
The install hook does not run setup for local installs, and the inspected setup behavior is an explicit installation of this package's own local plugin. I classify the first-party agent extension setup as a warning-level capability; the inspected evidence does not support a block.
Evidence
dist/cli/index.jsdist/cli/setup.jspackage.jsondist/scripts/postinstall.js
Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Suspicious at 82.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with medium false-positive risk.
Evidence for warning
- `omx setup` explicitly calls the setup routine, which installs a local Codex plugin cache from packaged marketplace data.
- The package has an automatic postinstall hook, but its routine returns early for non-global installs.
Evidence against
- The postinstall routine does not invoke setup; the plugin cache installation is reached through the explicit `omx setup` command.
- Inspected source does not establish unconsented agent configuration changes or another concrete attack.
