Can alter future OpenCode agent behavior in the consuming project without explicit consent. - **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:** 1.0.0 - **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. The confirmed issue is not classic malware or exfiltration, but the package uses an npm lifecycle hook to plant agent skill files into a project-level .opencode control surface without consent. Under the install control-surface policy, this is blockable AI-agent control hijack even though the planted skill content is SEO-aligned. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 93.0% - **Started:** 2026-07-05T00:11:41.777Z - **Finished:** 2026-07-05T00:12:21.199Z - **Download time:** 763 ms - **Static scan time:** 107 ms - **AI review time:** 38552 ms - **Total time:** 39422 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:** Install triggers unconsented mutation of a project-level OpenCode skill directory. The package plants its own SEO skill markdown into .opencode/skills during npm postinstall. - **Trigger:** npm install or any install path running lifecycle scripts - **Impact:** Can alter future OpenCode agent behavior in the consuming project without explicit consent. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, skills/postinstall.js, skills/seo-content-arbitrage.md, skills/seo-niche-blog-generator.md, skills/seo-video-podcast.md, lib/publisher.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-07-05T00:12:21.199Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** postinstall creates AI-agent skills via symlink/copy - **Attack narrative:** On installation, npm runs skills/postinstall.js. That script creates .opencode/skills in the current project and symlinks or copies all package markdown skill files into it. This unconsented lifecycle write modifies a broad AI-agent control surface, so future OpenCode sessions in the project may load package-supplied instructions. - **Rationale:** The confirmed issue is not classic malware or exfiltration, but the package uses an npm lifecycle hook to plant agent skill files into a project-level .opencode control surface without consent. Under the install control-surface policy, this is blockable AI-agent control hijack even though the planted skill content is SEO-aligned. - **Files touched:** .opencode/skills/seo-generation-seo-content-arbitrage.md, .opencode/skills/seo-generation-seo-niche-blog-generator.md, .opencode/skills/seo-generation-seo-video-podcast.md - **Network endpoints:** https://www.googleapis.com/upload/youtube/v3/videos?part=snippet,status&uploadType=resumable, https://studio.youtube.com, https://graph.facebook.com/v19.0/me/feed, https://www.facebook.com, ${wordpressUrl}/wp/v2/posts, ${wordpressUrl || 'http://localhost'}/wp-admin/post-new.php ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 93.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for policy risk:** package.json defines postinstall: node skills/postinstall.js, skills/postinstall.js runs at install time and creates .opencode/skills under process.cwd(), skills/postinstall.js symlinks or copies package markdown skills into that AI-agent skill directory without user opt-in, The lifecycle write targets a broad project agent control surface rather than only package internals - **Evidence against:** Runtime library code is mostly SEO analysis, LLM prompt generation, and platform publishing utilities, Network calls in lib/publisher.js are user-invoked publishing paths to YouTube, WordPress, and Facebook APIs, No credential harvesting, shell execution, eval/vm, native binary loading, destructive behavior, or remote payload download found ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @andy-toolforge/seo-generation@1.0.0. - Avoid installing @andy-toolforge/seo-generation@1.0.0. 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.
