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. Source inspection confirms dangerous automatic deletion and replacement outside the package, warranting a warning. Application-aligned setup and the absence of a proven malicious chain make a low-false-positive publication block unsupported. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 93.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-01T22:30:03.116Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-01T22:32:15.139Z - **Download time:** 761 ms - **Static scan time:** 1105 ms - **AI review time:** 130156 ms - **Total time:** 132023 ms 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:** Automatic installation can delete existing directories and replace files outside the package. This establishes a data-loss risk, but the inspected application setup does not establish a malicious attack. - **Trigger:** npm installation with lifecycle scripts enabled. - **Impact:** Existing consumer files can be deleted or overwritten depending on the installation layout. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, npm-post-install.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-01T22:32:15.139Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The postinstall script uses relative ancestor paths, recursive forced deletion, and file replacement without ownership checks or confirmation. - **Rationale:** Source inspection confirms dangerous automatic deletion and replacement outside the package, warranting a warning. Application-aligned setup and the absence of a proven malicious chain make a low-false-positive publication block unsupported. - **Files touched:** build, dist, temp, project, workspace, .vscode, settings.json, main.js, repos.json ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 93.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** package.json automatically loads npm-post-install.js after installation and has no runtime self-dependency., The installer targets a directory three levels above the package., The installer recursively deletes build, dist, and temp directories without checking their ownership., The installer deletes existing destinations before replacing project, workspace, settings.json, and other application files., The installer also invokes npm to install @aj-shadow/z-build-project. - **Evidence against:** Launcher generation and shell aliases are consistent with the inspected ActorJs application structure., No concrete credential exfiltration, deliberate obfuscation, or foreign AI-agent control mutation was established. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @aj-shadow/actorjs-app@0.0.0-aj-beta.243. - Review the evidence and your use of @aj-shadow/actorjs-app@0.0.0-aj-beta.243 before allowing it. Restrict the permissions described in this report. - Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe. ## Public findings ### 1.
