AI Security Review
scanned 11d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe inspected JavaScript does not confirm the scanner's alleged credential theft or remote code execution. The packaged runtime is launched with project data and secrets, but its executable behavior could not be inspected, so manual review is warranted.
Static reason
High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.
Trigger
Running the CLI's development flow when the Feather engine is selected and available.
Impact
Unresolved: the executable may access the supplied project data and secrets, but no specific harmful effect was verified.
Mechanism
The CLI locates and starts the packaged ELF runtime with project configuration and configured secrets in its environment.
AI rationale
The inspected JavaScript does not confirm the scanner's alleged credential theft or remote code execution. The packaged runtime is launched with project data and secrets, but its executable behavior could not be inspected, so manual review is warranted.
Evidence

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Manual Review at 78.0% confidence as Unknown with medium false-positive risk.
AI review observations
- The manifest exposes dist/index.js as the CLI and includes a bin directory.
- The CLI locates the packaged runlot-dev-runtime and can launch it for the Feather development engine.
- The runtime receives project paths and configured secrets through its environment.
- Offline analysis identifies the packaged runtime as a 12 MB ELF executable whose behavior could not be analyzed.
Evidence against
- The inspected JavaScript does not establish harmful behavior by the opaque runtime or an unrelated network recipient.
- The flagged dynamic evaluation is used to generate a schema validator; the inspected command execution supports local development tooling.
