Package-controlled AI-agent skills are installed into the consuming project without an explicit setup command. - **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:** 1.0.2 - **Selected version is latest:** Yes - **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. Source inspection confirms automatic postinstall mutation of .opencode/skills, which matches the block policy for unconsented npm lifecycle mutation of a foreign/broad AI-agent control surface. No secondary exfiltration or destructive payload was found, but the lifecycle control-surface write is sufficient for a block verdict. Product guard normalized a concrete AI-agent control hijack publish\_block to the blockable dangerous-capability shape. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 94.0% - **Started:** 2026-07-06T02:06:59.195Z - **Finished:** 2026-07-06T02:07:41.419Z - **Download time:** 761 ms - **Static scan time:** 56 ms - **AI review time:** 41407 ms - **Total time:** 42224 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:** The package performs unconsented install-time mutation of a broad/foreign AI-agent control surface. The dropped content is benign-looking, but the postinstall mechanism makes package-supplied skills active in .opencode/skills. - **Trigger:** npm install @andy-toolforge/pm-support - **Impact:** Package-controlled AI-agent skills are installed into the consuming project without an explicit setup command. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, skills/postinstall.js, skills/pm-meeting-assistant.md, skills/pm-project-planner.md - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-07-06T02:07:41.419Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** postinstall symlink/copy into .opencode/skills - **Attack narrative:** On npm install, the lifecycle hook runs skills/postinstall.js. That script creates .opencode/skills under the current project and links or copies package Markdown skills into it, making package-authored agent instructions available to the user's AI tooling without a separate opt-in setup command. - **Rationale:** Source inspection confirms automatic postinstall mutation of .opencode/skills, which matches the block policy for unconsented npm lifecycle mutation of a foreign/broad AI-agent control surface. No secondary exfiltration or destructive payload was found, but the lifecycle control-surface write is sufficient for a block verdict. Product guard normalized a concrete AI-agent control hijack publish\_block to the blockable dangerous-capability shape. - **Files touched:** .opencode/skills/pm-support-pm-meeting-assistant.md, .opencode/skills/pm-support-pm-project-planner.md ### 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 in the install cwd, skills/postinstall.js symlinks or copies package Markdown skill files into that AI-agent skill directory, Mutation happens automatically during npm install, not by explicit user command - **Evidence against:** No network, credential harvesting, child\_process, eval, or native/binary loading found, Runtime lib/tracker.js is an in-memory task/time tracker, Dropped skill files are project-management prompts without exfiltration or destructive instructions ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @andy-toolforge/pm-support@1.0.2. - Avoid installing @andy-toolforge/pm-support@1.0.2. 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.
