thalamus@1.4.3
Mobile and Web client for Claude Code
AI Security Review
scanned 2mo ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe sensitive network operation is an explicit named CLI action and targets the package's configured service. The install hook only unpacks bundled tools; no unconsented credential harvesting, foreign agent-control mutation, or runtime self-dependency was found.
Static reason
One or more suspicious static signals were detected.; source matched previously finalized malicious package; routed for review; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source
Trigger
npm installation for extraction, or an explicit thalamus connect claude command for credential upload.
Impact
Bundled binaries become executable; the opt-in command shares a vendor credential with the package service.
Mechanism
Archive extraction and user-invoked cloud credential registration.
AI rationale
The sensitive network operation is an explicit named CLI action and targets the package's configured service. The install hook only unpacks bundled tools; no unconsented credential harvesting, foreign agent-control mutation, or runtime self-dependency was found.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Clean at 88.0% confidence as Benign with medium false-positive risk.
Evidence for AI clean decision
- The postinstall hook extracts bundled archives and makes extracted files executable.
- The explicit connect command obtains Anthropic authentication and uploads it to the package service.
- The flagged library entrypoints are thin re-export stubs.
- A compressed native-tool archive is shipped.
Evidence against
- Postinstall performs no network request or foreign AI-agent configuration change.
- Credential upload requires the user to invoke the named connect command after Thalamus authentication.
- The remote host is the package's configured service endpoint.
- No self-dependency, hidden download, or install-time credential harvesting was found.
