## Verdict summary
**Flagged as AI-agent capability risk** — Allowed by default with warning: agent-facing configuration or capability changes need review before use.

- **Verdict:** Suspicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Warn
- **Firewall policy:** Warn-only AI-agent capability risk
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** AI-agent capability abuse
- **Selected version:** 0.11.4
- **Selected version is latest:** No
- **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai)

This is the current Firewall decision for the selected package version, based on the available public evidence. Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions.

AI assessment: suspicious; recommendation: downgrade to warn. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The Codex integration bypasses approvals and sandbox protections by default when launching the agent, a meaningful risk even though it is triggered by a user command. The inspected credential settings appear provider-directed, and I found no concrete evidence of exfiltration, so this warrants a warning rather than a block.

## Latest scan

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:** The Codex integration weakens the agent's safety controls by default.

- **Trigger:** A user runs a command that launches the Codex agent.

- **Impact:** Codex can operate without its normal approval and sandbox restrictions, increasing the risk of unintended commands and file changes.

- **Evidence paths:** dist/kanban.mjs, bin/ai4kanban.mjs

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-11-01T15:41:00.776Z

### AI review details

- **Review stage:** source\_first\_review

- **Mechanism:** The launcher adds --dangerously-bypass-approvals-and-sandbox unless the user's arguments already specify a recognized sandbox option.

- **Rationale:** The Codex integration bypasses approvals and sandbox protections by default when launching the agent, a meaningful risk even though it is triggered by a user command. The inspected credential settings appear provider-directed, and I found no concrete evidence of exfiltration, so this warrants a warning rather than a block.

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 94.0%

- **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for warning:** The Codex launcher adds --dangerously-bypass-approvals-and-sandbox by default unless the user supplies a recognized sandbox flag., The package CLI invokes the agent runner for the user's command.

- **Evidence against:** The inspected API key settings tie keys to a selected provider or endpoint; I found no evidence that they are automatically sent to an unrelated collector., The reported curl command downloads Cursor from cursor.com/install and is configured as an agent install action, not an automatic package install hook.

## Affected versions and remediation
