## Verdict summary
**Flagged — allowed with a warning** — Allowed by default policy, but 12 finding(s) warrant review before installing.

- **Verdict:** Suspicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Warn
- **Firewall policy:** Matched warn-list
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Staged Payload Carrier
- **Selected version:** 2.0.4
- **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 remote skill installer is a real inert payload carrier, but source inspection shows no automatic trigger, credential theft, destructive behavior, or executable-entrypoint attack chain. Warn rather than block.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 89.0%

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:** A dormant helper can install remote AI skills if explicitly run. It is not connected to npm installation or the published CLI entrypoint.

- **Trigger:** Explicit execution of node scripts/postinstall.js.

- **Impact:** Could add unreviewed remote skills to the invoking user's skill environment.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/postinstall.js, dist/index.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-08-24T07:09:30.878Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** Runs npx skills add for two remote repositories.

- **Rationale:** The remote skill installer is a real inert payload carrier, but source inspection shows no automatic trigger, credential theft, destructive behavior, or executable-entrypoint attack chain. Warn rather than block.

- **Files touched:** scripts/postinstall.js

- **Network endpoints:** https://github.com/sohailkhan0525/skills, https://github.com/nextlevelbuilder/ui-ux-pro-max-skill

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 89.0%

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

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for warning:** Dormant scripts/postinstall.js runs npx to install remote skills from two GitHub repositories., The installer suppresses failures, reducing visibility if manually executed.

- **Evidence against:** package.json has no install, preinstall, or postinstall lifecycle hook; only prepublishOnly builds artifacts., The shipped bin starts a terminal UI; its user-message callback is empty and performs no agent action., No credential harvesting, exfiltration, destructive operation, or runtime child-process call was found in the executable entrypoint.
