## 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:** 5.26.1
- **Selected version is latest:** Yes
- **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.

Source inspection found no malicious behavior. The postinstall hook is limited to a Windows PATH notice, and the statusline credential request targets Anthropic’s official usage endpoint for the displayed quota feature.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 91.0%
- **Started:** 2026-10-29T09:00:15.309Z
- **Finished:** 2026-10-29T09:10:04.017Z
- **Download time:** 3334 ms
- **Static scan time:** 11620 ms
- **AI review time:** 573753 ms
- **Total time:** 588708 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:** No attack was identified in the inspected sources. The statusline sends a saved Claude OAuth token to Anthropic’s usage endpoint for quota display.

- **Trigger:** The statusline runs when configured by the CLI’s install command and starts a background refresh when its usage cache is stale.

- **Impact:** The inspected flow supports the statusline usage feature; no unrelated recipient or confirmed attack effect was found.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-29T09:10:04.017Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** It reads the saved token, skips missing or near-expiry credentials, and sends a bearer request to the fixed Anthropic usage host. The refresh has a SMARTSTACK\_STATUSLINE\_NO\_NET opt-out.

- **Rationale:** Source inspection found no malicious behavior. The postinstall hook is limited to a Windows PATH notice, and the statusline credential request targets Anthropic’s official usage endpoint for the displayed quota feature.

- **Files touched:** package.json, scripts/postinstall.js, dist/index.js, templates/scripts/statusline/index.js

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

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 91.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The install hook only prints a Windows PATH notice. The installed statusline reads Claude Code’s saved OAuth token for a background usage refresh, checks expiry, and sends it to Anthropic’s fixed usage endpoint; the refresh can be disabled with SMARTSTACK\_STATUSLINE\_NO\_NET., The other required source paths cover library exports and CLI modules for validation, scaffolding, documentation, and GitFlow. Their inspected excerpts did not establish a separate attack behavior.

- **Evidence against:** The scanner’s unofficial-gateway claim is not supported by the inspected request: its fixed host and path are api.anthropic.com and /api/oauth/usage.
