# @andy-toolforge/footage-generation@1.0.1 npm security report

## Verdict summary
**Soft block: AI-agent control surface** — Warn by default; block when configured. Package instructions become available to Opencode agents in the consuming project without explicit user action.

- **Verdict:** AI-agent control-surface policy finding
- **Product-default install policy:** Warn by default; block when configured
- **Firewall policy:** Warn by default
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Soft block: AI-agent control surface
- **Selected version:** 1.0.1
- **Selected version is latest:** No
- **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai)

This finding concerns changes to an AI agent's instructions or configuration without explicit user action. It does not by itself establish malware intent. The CLI warns by default and blocks when configured for this policy.

AI assessment: malicious; recommendation: publish block. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

Although the package functionality is mostly aligned with image/podcast generation, the lifecycle hook unconditionally plants agent skill files into .opencode/skills, a broad AI-agent control surface. Under the install control-surface policy, that unconsented lifecycle mutation is blockable AI-agent control hijack.

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:** Install-time code mutates a project-level Opencode skills directory by planting package-supplied agent instructions. This is an unconsented lifecycle write into a broad AI-agent control surface.

- **Trigger:** npm install / postinstall

- **Impact:** Package instructions become available to Opencode agents in the consuming project without explicit user action.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, skills/postinstall.js, skills/browser-automation-opportunities.md, lib/llm.js, mcp-tools.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-07-05T02:05:56.079Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** lifecycle symlink/copy of AI-agent skill files

- **Attack narrative:** On installation, the postinstall script creates .opencode/skills in the consumer project and symlinks or copies all packaged markdown skills there. Those files become agent-facing instructions, including browser automation guidance for Gemini, without an explicit user-invoked setup step.

- **Rationale:** Although the package functionality is mostly aligned with image/podcast generation, the lifecycle hook unconditionally plants agent skill files into .opencode/skills, a broad AI-agent control surface. Under the install control-surface policy, that unconsented lifecycle mutation is blockable AI-agent control hijack.

- **Files touched:** .opencode/skills/footage-generation-workflow-podcast-processor.md, .opencode/skills/footage-generation-podcast-cover-generator.md, .opencode/skills/footage-generation-browser-automation-opportunities.md

- **Network endpoints:** https://gemini.google.com/images, gemini.google.com

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Malicious

- **Confidence:** 94.0%

- **Recommended action:** publish\_block

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for policy risk:** package.json runs postinstall: node skills/postinstall.js, skills/postinstall.js creates .opencode/skills under process.cwd during install, postinstall symlinks or copies package .md skills into that AI-agent control surface without opt-in, skills/browser-automation-opportunities.md promotes automating gemini.google.com as an unlimited API

- **Evidence against:** No credential harvesting or exfiltration found in JS sources, No install-time network calls found, Runtime LLM/image methods are user-invoked and package-aligned, MCP tools only expose prompt-generation handlers

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to @andy-toolforge/footage-generation@1.0.1.

- Avoid installing @andy-toolforge/footage-generation@1.0.1. Remove it from direct dependencies and check your lockfile for transitive copies.
- Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe.
- If this version ran, investigate the affected machine and build environment. Rotate credentials it could access and rebuild from a trusted environment.

## Public findings

### 1. High: Install Time Lifecycle Scripts
- **Category:** Manifest
- **Confidence:** 90.0%
- **Path:** package.json
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@andy-toolforge/footage-generation@1.0.1/package.json>)

Package defines install-time lifecycle scripts.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```json
scripts.postinstall = node skills/postinstall.js
```

### 2. Medium: Ambiguous Install Lifecycle Script
- **Category:** Manifest
- **Confidence:** 75.0%
- **Path:** package.json
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@andy-toolforge/footage-generation@1.0.1/package.json>)

Install-time lifecycle script is not statically allowlisted and needs review.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```json
scripts.postinstall = node skills/postinstall.js
```

### 3. Low: Scripts Present
- **Category:** Manifest
- **Confidence:** 100.0%

Package declares npm scripts.

### 4. Low: Filesystem
- **Category:** Source
- **Confidence:** 70.0%

Package source references filesystem APIs.

### 5. Critical: Ai Agent Control Hijack
- **Category:** Source
- **Confidence:** 90.0%
- **Path:** skills/postinstall.js
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@andy-toolforge/footage-generation@1.0.1/skills/postinstall.js>)

Install-time source drops package-supplied AI-agent/MCP control files or instructions.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

````javascript
Install-time AI-agent control hijack evidence:
L5: const projectRoot = process.cwd();
L6: const targetDir = path.join(projectRoot, '.opencode', 'skills');
L7: const sourceDir = path.join(__dirname);
L8: 
L9: fs.mkdirSync(targetDir, { recursive: true });
L10:

L21: // Fallback: copy if symlink fails
L22: fs.copyFileSync(src, dest);
L23: console.log(`  📄 Copied ${destName}`);
Payload evidence from AGENTS.md:
L23: prompts-template.md
L24: package.json    — deps: @andy-toolforge/core, sharp
L25: ```
````

### 6. Low: Url Strings
- **Category:** Supply Chain
- **Confidence:** 65.0%

Package source contains URL literals.

### 7. Medium: Structural Risk Force Deep Review
- **Category:** Artifact Inventory
- **Confidence:** 95.0%

Artifact structure forces deeper review even if the static behavioral verdict is clean.

### 8. Low: No License
- **Category:** Manifest
