Multi-agent orchestration layer for OpenAI Codex CLI
AI Security Review
scanned 19d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe scanner’s lifecycle and agent-configuration indicators map to ordinary package behavior: postinstall does not invoke setup, local installs are a no-op, and native hydration is version-matched and checksum-checked. The reviewed source did not establish an attack surface.
Static reason
High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.
Trigger
npm postinstall; the source exits early for local installs and proceeds for global installs.
Impact
No attack effect was established; the observed install behavior supports the package’s native runtime and version tracking.
Mechanism
The global-install branch may download a platform-matched runtime from the package’s release source, validate its manifest and archive checksum, and update a user install stamp. The separate setup operation is invoked through the CLI.
AI rationale
The scanner’s lifecycle and agent-configuration indicators map to ordinary package behavior: postinstall does not invoke setup, local installs are a no-op, and native hydration is version-matched and checksum-checked. The reviewed source did not establish an attack surface.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Clean at 92.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for AI clean decision
- package.json runs a postinstall hook, but dist/scripts/postinstall.js exits for local installs; on global installs it may hydrate the matching native runtime and update an install-version stamp.
- Native runtime downloads resolve to the package repository’s release assets, validate the release manifest and archive checksum, and are limited to supported platform and architecture combinations.
- The flagged setup code is reached through the CLI command; the postinstall hook does not call setup. The inspected required runtime and test paths did not establish an attack.
Evidence against
- Global postinstall can fetch a native binary and write a user install stamp.
- Native release URL configuration accepts an environment override, and manifest and archive integrity checks use the downloaded manifest.
