Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions. AI assessment: suspicious; recommendation: downgrade to warn. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. The source confirms automatic postinstall setup of a first-party agent skill in a global Codex configuration location, with an opt-out but no affirmative consent gate. This warrants a warning for agent extension lifecycle risk; the inspected source does not establish a concrete attack. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 93.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-22T06:05:41.447Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-22T06:06:29.763Z - **Download time:** 778 ms - **Static scan time:** 199 ms - **AI review time:** 47338 ms - **Total time:** 48316 ms 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:** The npm postinstall hook automatically installs the package's bundled AI skill into the user's Codex skills directory. This is first-party agent setup with an opt-out, but it changes agent configuration without affirmative consent. - **Trigger:** Installing the npm package when the opt-out variable is unset and the install is not running from the package itself. - **Impact:** The agent gains a package-provided skill that directs it to operate the VVICAT CLI; no credential transfer or remote skill channel was identified in the inspected source. - **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:** 2026-10-22T06:06:29.763Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The hook imports the skill manager and installs the bundled skill under the user's .codex/skills directory, while skipping existing unmanaged or modified targets. - **Rationale:** The source confirms automatic postinstall setup of a first-party agent skill in a global Codex configuration location, with an opt-out but no affirmative consent gate. This warrants a warning for agent extension lifecycle risk; the inspected source does not establish a concrete attack. - **Files touched:** ~/.codex/skills/using-vvicat-ai-short-studio-cli ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 93.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** package.json defines a postinstall hook that runs scripts/postinstall.mjs., The hook skips only when an opt-out variable is set or installation runs from the package itself; otherwise it calls automatic skill installation., The default installation destination is the user's .codex/skills directory, and the manager copies the bundled skill there., The bundled skill directs an AI agent to use this CLI for VVICAT project work., Automatic installation skips an existing skill if it is unmanaged or modified. - **Evidence against:** The bundled skill describes product workflows and safeguards; inspected content showed no review-directed override or remote skill channel., The manager avoids replacing existing unmanaged or modified skill directories. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @aswless\_854771076/ai\_short\_studio\_cli@0.1.98. - Review the evidence and your use of @aswless\_854771076/ai\_short\_studio\_cli@0.1.98 before allowing it. Restrict the permissions described in this report. - Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe. ## Public findings ### 1.
