## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 13 low-signal pattern(s) reviewed.

- **Verdict:** Clean
- **Product-default install policy:** Allow
- **Firewall policy:** No policy match
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** None published
- **Selected version:** 1.4.23
- **Selected version is latest:** No
- **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai)

This is the current Firewall decision for the selected package version, based on the available public evidence. Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions.

AI assessment: clean; recommendation: mark clean. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

Source inspection did not confirm the scanner’s credential-redirection claim. The flagged agent locations resolve to transcript discovery and tokenizer data, while plugin setup is explicit and first-party.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 92.0%
- **Started:** 2026-10-19T17:24:12.934Z

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:** No attack was identified in the inspected package source.

- **Trigger:** There is no npm install lifecycle trigger; the agent plugin setup is activated through an explicit CLI command.

- **Impact:** No unauthorized credential transfer or agent control-surface change was established.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-19T17:26:14.766Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** App requests are constrained to selected allowed origins, while the plugin setup installs Apilift’s own plugin.

- **Rationale:** Source inspection did not confirm the scanner’s credential-redirection claim. The flagged agent locations resolve to transcript discovery and tokenizer data, while plugin setup is explicit and first-party.

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 92.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The manifest exposes four CLI binaries and has build, typecheck, and test scripts, with no npm install lifecycle hook., The CLI defaults to the Apilift service; generated app requests are limited to the selected transport’s allowed origins, and authentication and cookie headers are reserved to that transport., Agent plugin installation is a first-party operation reached through the explicit setup continuation command., The flagged collector location enumerates local Codex and Claude session transcript directories., The session-audit target is inside bundled tokenizer vocabulary; the audit accepts a user-provided session or transcript path and accesses the Codex index read-only., The native host strips credentials, query strings, and fragments when scrubbing scoped capture URLs.

- **Evidence against:** The scanner’s fixed unofficial gateway claim was not borne out by the inspected source., The inspected agent-related behavior does not show an install hook or an unconsented agent configuration write.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```javascript
Manifest-reachable source captures an API credential, sends it to a fixed unofficial gateway, and persists that redirection in agent or shell configuration.
dist/apilift.js:

if (v.mode === "direct" && !v.baseUrl)
ctx.addIssue({ code: "custom", path: ["baseUrl"], message: "Direct transport requires baseUrl" });
if (v.baseUrl && !v.allowedOrigins.includes(parseUrl(v.baseUrl)?.origin ?? ""))
