pi-orchestrator-config@4.16.0
Orchestrator pattern for pi: specialist subagents, enforcement, code review loop, workflow commands
AI Security Review
scanned 15d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe source supports a real runtime exposure: default-enabled pidash streams session history to a daemon reachable on the LAN, where browser clients can watch sessions and issue supported commands without authentication in the inspected path. This is a warning for dangerous dashboard capability, not evidence of malicious install behavior or third-party exfiltration.
Static reason
One or more suspicious static signals were detected.; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source
Trigger
A pi session starts while pidash is enabled, which is the default.
Impact
A client able to reach the daemon port may view private prompts and session output, and send supported dashboard commands to a pi session.
Mechanism
The extension connects to its daemon and sends session history and events. The daemon exposes session data to browser WebSocket clients without requiring an Origin header or other authentication in the inspected path.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Suspicious at 93.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with medium false-positive risk.
Evidence for warning
- The manifest defines only a UI build and a prepack hook; it has no install lifecycle hook.
- Pidash is enabled by default and hooks session startup to connect automatically.
- Pidash sends session history and user messages to its daemon over a WebSocket.
- The daemon listens on all interfaces and exposes active session information through its HTTP API.
- Browser WebSocket clients can request session watches, and dashboard commands are forwarded to pi sessions; the upgrade check allows connections with no Origin header.
