The bundled skill can later direct an agent to use this CLI and its remote VVICAT API, but no install-time exfiltration or remote payload execution was found. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 94.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-06T14:25:26.048Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-06T14:26:21.689Z - **Download time:** 506 ms - **Static scan time:** 133 ms - **AI review time:** 55001 ms - **Total time:** 55641 ms ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** npm postinstall automatically installs package-owned agent skills into the user's Codex skills directory. The bundled skill can later direct an agent to use this CLI and its remote VVICAT API, but no install-time exfiltration or remote payload execution was found. - **Trigger:** npm install or upgrade outside the package root, unless VVICAT\_SKIP\_SKILL\_INSTALL=1. - **Impact:** Unconsented first-party agent-extension installation; later agent use may invoke the CLI and its configured VVICAT service. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/postinstall.mjs, dist/skill/skill-manager.js, skills/using-vvicat-ai-short-studio-cli/SKILL.md, dist/preflight.js, dist/runtime.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-06T14:26:21.689Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** copies bundled agent instruction files into the Codex skill directory - **Rationale:** This is an unconsented install-time mutation of an AI-agent extension surface, warranting a warning. It is scoped first-party skill setup rather than a concrete malicious chain. - **Files touched:** scripts/postinstall.mjs, dist/skill/skill-manager.js, skills/using-vvicat-ai-short-studio-cli, skills/short-drama, ~/.codex/skills/using-vvicat-ai-short-studio-cli, ~/.codex/skills/short-drama - **Network endpoints:** https://ai-short-studio.vvicat.dev, /api/v1/bootstrap ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 94.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** package.json runs scripts/postinstall.mjs., postinstall defaults to ~/.codex/skills unless opted out., skill-manager copies two bundled skills during install., Bundled Codex skill instructs CLI preflight with default global update. - **Evidence against:** Only named bundled skill directories are managed., Modified or unmanaged skills are skipped without --force., No install-time network request, shell execution, or credential reading found., API access and asset upload occur through explicit CLI commands. ## Public findings ### 1.
