It copies two bundled agent skills into the default ~/.codex/skills directory. - **Trigger:** npm installation outside the package directory - **Impact:** Introduces package-authored instructions into a broad AI-agent control surface. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/postinstall.mjs, dist/skill/skill-manager.js, skills/using-vvicat-ai-short-studio-cli/SKILL.md - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-08T09:12:39.077Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** automatic postinstall deployment of bundled Codex skills - **Attack narrative:** During npm postinstall, the package imports its skill manager and copies bundled skills to ~/.codex/skills by default. The installation is automatic, only skipped by an opt-out environment variable, and updates package-managed targets. This is unconsented install-time mutation of a foreign AI-agent control surface. - **Rationale:** Source inspection confirms a concrete postinstall write into Codex's global skills directory. That behavior meets the firewall block boundary regardless of otherwise package-aligned API and authentication code. - **Files touched:** scripts/postinstall.mjs, 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 ### 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.mjs on install., scripts/postinstall.mjs auto-installs bundled skills unless explicitly opted out., dist/skill/skill-manager.js defaults to ~/.codex/skills and replaces package-managed targets., The installed skill includes operational instructions for the CLI. - **Evidence against:** No credential harvesting or unrelated exfiltration found in inspected auth/runtime code., Network use targets the declared VVICAT service and Supabase authentication flow. ## Public findings ### 1.
