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. osborn 0.9.240 is a user-started voice coding agent with no registry lifecycle hook. Local Claude credential checks and settings use are part of that product and are not an install-time control-surface hijack. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 84.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-27T18:28:31.368Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-27T18:33:04.358Z - **Download time:** 504 ms - **Static scan time:** 714 ms - **AI review time:** 271771 ms - **Total time:** 272990 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 install-time or covert attack surface was identified. Claude credential, skill, and session paths run only after the user starts the voice agent and stay on the local Claude directory or the connected frontend session. - **Trigger:** User invocation of the osborn or osborn-recall binaries, not npm install. - **Impact:** No unconsented install mutation, hidden credential export, or remote payload execution was found. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-27T18:33:04.358Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The process reads local Claude credentials and session files, may merge two compaction settings, and during an interactive login forwards the newly issued token to the connected frontend callback. - **Rationale:** osborn 0.9.240 is a user-started voice coding agent with no registry lifecycle hook. Local Claude credential checks and settings use are part of that product and are not an install-time control-surface hijack. ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 84.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** package.json exposes osborn and osborn-recall bins and only dev, build, and prepublishOnly scripts, with no preinstall, install, or postinstall hook and no dependency on osborn itself., dist/claude-auth.js points CREDENTIALS\_PATH at the local ~/.claude/.credentials.json file and uses it to decide whether a Claude login already exists., The flagged region in dist/claude-llm.js is a commented-out loader for ~/.claude/skills, not an install-time writer or network call., getClaudeProjectsDir returns the local ~/.claude/projects directory for session lookup., loadSkillsList only reads SKILL.md files under the agent directory .claude/skills when the user starts the agent., getOsbDir places summary files beside Claude session data under CLAUDE\_CONFIG\_DIR or ~/.claude., osborn-recall spawns the local recall CLI with inherited stdio and does not install another package., getSessionPaths only computes local Claude project, conversation, and subagent paths. - **Evidence against:** Importing the agent module merges autoCompactWindow and cleanupPeriodDays into ~/.claude/settings.json after the user starts the CLI., After the user completes Claude login, the new OAuth token is sent to the already connected frontend callback so that frontend can persist it., The osborn and osborn-recall binaries symlink ~/.claude to /workspace/.claude when that directory exists and home is not /workspace. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to osborn@0.9.240. - Review the evidence and your use of osborn@0.9.240 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.
