## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 20 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:** 5.25.0
- **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.

The high-risk scanner hints resolve to a benign install message, product setup, and an intended-service usage request. The inspected source does not establish a concrete attack surface.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 92.0%
- **Started:** 2026-10-21T22:23:25.170Z

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 install hook or the inspected credential-transfer path.

- **Trigger:** The package postinstall runs during npm installation; the statusline runs after a user invokes the CLI install command and Claude Code calls the configured statusline.

- **Impact:** The reviewed behavior supports installation guidance and quota display; no unrelated credential recipient or unauthorized account action was found.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-21T22:26:12.892Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The postinstall helper prints Windows PATH guidance. The statusline uses the saved Claude OAuth token for a quota request to Anthropic’s official usage API.

- **Rationale:** The high-risk scanner hints resolve to a benign install message, product setup, and an intended-service usage request. The inspected source does not establish a concrete attack surface.

- **Network endpoints:** api.anthropic.com

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 92.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** package.json runs a postinstall helper that only prints Windows PATH guidance; it does not perform a network request or write files., The configured statusline reads Claude Code’s saved OAuth token and sends a quota request to Anthropic’s usage API. The CLI installs that statusline as part of its install command., The required template sources describe project-scoped validation, generation, and GitFlow operations; inspection found no package-directed credential transfer in those paths., The prepared glob, Handlebars, and Zod manifests and entrypoints show ordinary library code and no malicious install behavior.

- **Evidence against:** The statusline reads a saved Claude OAuth token and sends it as bearer authentication; the inspected recipient is api.anthropic.com and the request fetches usage data.
