Unconsented modification of broad, foreign AI-agent instruction/control surfaces. - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Product-default install policy:** Block - **Firewall policy:** Warn by default - **Public report status:** Published - **Threat category:** Soft block: AI-agent control surface - **Selected version:** 1.4.7 - **Selected version is latest:** Yes - **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai) LPM flags this version as an AI-agent control-surface risk. npm postinstall automatically installs a bundled agent skill into detected Claude, Gemini, Codex, and Antigravity control surfaces. Detection includes the mere presence of their home directories, so no explicit setup command is required. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 98.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-07T02:43:59.048Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-07T02:44:30.406Z - **Download time:** 757 ms - **Static scan time:** 93 ms - **AI review time:** 30507 ms - **Total time:** 31358 ms ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** npm postinstall automatically installs a bundled agent skill into detected Claude, Gemini, Codex, and Antigravity control surfaces. Detection includes the mere presence of their home directories, so no explicit setup command is required. - **Trigger:** npm install of the package - **Impact:** Unconsented modification of broad, foreign AI-agent instruction/control surfaces. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/postinstall.js, scripts/lib.js, scripts/preuninstall.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-07T02:44:30.406Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** postinstall recursive forced copy into AI-agent skill directories - **Attack narrative:** On installation, postinstall detects multiple AI clients by command, environment variable, or existing config directory. For every detected client it recursively copies the package skill into that client's globally loaded skill directory with force enabled. This mutates foreign AI-agent control surfaces without an explicit user command; preuninstall later recursively removes those directories. - **Rationale:** This is concrete unconsented postinstall mutation of broad foreign AI-agent control surfaces, meeting the blocking policy. Absence of exfiltration does not mitigate that install-time control-surface write. - **Files touched:** scripts/postinstall.js, scripts/lib.js, skills/kb-agentic-skill/\*\*, ~/.claude/skills/kb-agentic, ~/.gemini/skills/kb-agentic, ~/.codex/skills/kb-agentic, ~/.gemini/config/skills/kb-agentic ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 98.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** package.json runs scripts/postinstall.js automatically on install., scripts/postinstall.js detects installed AI clients and copies the bundled skill to each client target., scripts/lib.js treats existing ~/.claude, ~/.gemini, or ~/.codex directories as detection., scripts/lib.js uses recursive forced copying into AI-agent skill directories. - **Evidence against:** No network, credential harvesting, or exfiltration code found in inspected lifecycle scripts., The copied payload is a local documentation/agent-protocol skill, not a remote loader. ## Public findings ### 1.
