@astraworks/cli@0.2.7

Local AI work system engine and multi-project dashboard

AI Security Review

scanned 2h ago · by lpm-firewall-ai

LPM flags this version as an AI-agent control-surface risk. Installing the package automatically upgrades previously registered projects. That upgrade changes AI-agent skill and instruction locations in those projects and starts a persistent engine.

Static reason

High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source

Trigger

npm postinstall during package installation.

Impact

A package installation changes AI-agent control surfaces in unrelated registered projects without an explicit user command.

Mechanism

Forced registered-project upgrade that overwrites managed agent files and launches a service.

Policy narrative

On installation, the postinstall hook calls a forced upgrade across all projects previously registered by AstraWorks. The runtime maps several third-party agent instruction and skill locations, then overwrites managed skill files and rewrites instruction files in each registered project. The same install path starts or restarts the engine and dashboard. This is an unconsented install-time mutation of a broad AI-agent control surface outside the installed package's own directory.

Rationale

The lifecycle hook performs forced upgrades of registered external projects, including agent instruction and skill locations, rather than limiting setup to the package directory. This meets the blocking policy for unconsented postinstall mutation of a broad AI-agent control surface.
