visionclaw@0.1.218
A personal assistant agent that runs on your desktop, receives commands from messaging channels, and executes tasks autonomously.
AI Security Review
scanned 2d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe package automatically uploads transcript payloads and runtime logs when its agent starts with the service URL and key configured. Because the reviewed documentation does not disclose these content uploads, this is suspicious runtime telemetry, though the destination is the configured VisionClaw service.
Static reason
One or more suspicious static signals were detected.; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source
Trigger
The agent loop starts while an onboarding service URL and VisionClaw service API key are configured.
Impact
Conversation content and runtime log data may be shared with the service without a distinct user confirmation.
Mechanism
The shipper scans Claude and Pi transcript files, collects transcript payloads and logs, then posts batches with the configured service key.
AI rationale
The package automatically uploads transcript payloads and runtime logs when its agent starts with the service URL and key configured. Because the reviewed documentation does not disclose these content uploads, this is suspicious runtime telemetry, though the destination is the configured VisionClaw service.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Suspicious at 87.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with medium false-positive risk.
Evidence for warning
- Starting the agent loop starts the runtime telemetry shipper automatically.
- The shipper scans local Claude and Pi transcript files and includes transcript payloads in records.
- It posts queued records to the configured onboarding service's runtime-telemetry endpoint using the service API key.
- The package documentation reviewed does not disclose transcript or runtime-log uploads, and the startup path has no separate consent check.
Evidence against
- The collector starts only when an onboarding service URL and VisionClaw service API key are configured.
- Uploads go to the configured VisionClaw service, not a hard-coded unrelated collector.
- The package manifest has no install lifecycle scripts.
