Caveat verdict

codex-auth

88
🟢 Trusted
No high-risk patterns surfaced by the deep scan — automated capability review, not behavioral proof.

Deprecated OAuth authentication shim for OpenAI Codex with explicit safety guardrails — no remote shell execution, no sudo, writes only to auth profile state files, and prohibits sending tokens to third-party hosts.

⚠ Flagged for review — coarse, uncorroborated signal, not a confirmed exploit. Review the config yourself before installing.

Automated static analysis — not a human review. Caveat flags capabilities, not confirmed intent, and can produce false positives. Disagree with this verdict? Use Dispute below.
