## Verdict summary
**Flagged — allowed with a warning** — Allowed by default policy, but 20 finding(s) warrant review before installing.

- **Verdict:** Suspicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Warn
- **Firewall policy:** Matched warn-list
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Persistence
- **Selected version:** 0.1.41
- **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: suspicious; recommendation: downgrade to warn. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The automatic postinstall change to user shell startup files is a real persistence risk, so this merits a warning. The inspected source does not establish a concrete malicious chain or a reason to block publication.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 89.0%
- **Started:** 2026-10-09T11:11:48.927Z

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 postinstall hook adds Apollo shell initialization to user shell startup files. This creates a persistent command that runs when a supported shell starts; no confirmed attack behavior was identified in the inspected code.

- **Trigger:** Installing the package outside CI without setting APOLLO\_NO\_SHELL\_SETUP=1.

- **Impact:** Apollo shell initialization runs on later shell starts, creating a persistent user-level change; the inspected code does not establish malicious payload execution or data theft.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/setup-shell.mjs

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-09T11:12:50.919Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The setup script appends a guarded eval command to existing zsh/bash startup files and may create the login shell’s startup file.

- **Rationale:** The automatic postinstall change to user shell startup files is a real persistence risk, so this merits a warning. The inspected source does not establish a concrete malicious chain or a reason to block publication.

- **Files touched:** ~/.zshrc, ~/.bashrc, ~/.bash\_profile

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 89.0%

- **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for warning:** The package runs shell setup automatically from its postinstall hook., That setup appends a command to existing shell startup files and may create the login shell’s startup file., The appended command evaluates Apollo’s shell initialization whenever the shell starts.

- **Evidence against:** The setup skips CI and supports an explicit APOLLO\_NO\_SHELL\_SETUP=1 opt-out., The setup is idempotent, reports the files it changes, and describes the added integration., The other install helper is gated on missing OpenTUI files and reinstalls the package-declared OpenTUI dependencies.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to @aui.io/apollo@0.1.41.

- Review the evidence and your use of @aui.io/apollo@0.1.41 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.
