## Verdict summary
**Flagged — allowed with a warning** — Allowed by default policy, but 17 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:** 0.1.82
- **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 edit to user shell startup files is a real persistent configuration change, so a warning is appropriate. Inspected source does not establish malicious behavior or a publish-blocking attack.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 94.0%
- **Started:** 2026-10-09T11:12:57.845Z
- **Finished:** 2026-10-09T11:14:02.955Z
- **Download time:** 1769 ms
- **Static scan time:** 6954 ms
- **AI review time:** 56385 ms
- **Total time:** 65110 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:** Installation can persist a shell integration command in user startup files. The command invokes Apollo shell integration on later shell starts to support workspace auto-cd.

- **Trigger:** npm installation runs the postinstall hook; setup runs unless CI or APOLLO\_NO\_SHELL\_SETUP=1 is set.

- **Impact:** The shell invokes Apollo’s shell-init on future starts, adding persistent behavior to the user’s shell environment. No malicious effect was established in inspected source.

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

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-09T11:14:02.955Z

### AI review details

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

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

- **Rationale:** The automatic postinstall edit to user shell startup files is a real persistent configuration change, so a warning is appropriate. Inspected source does not establish malicious behavior or a publish-blocking attack.

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

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 94.0%

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

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for warning:** The postinstall hook automatically runs shell setup after installation., The setup script appends a command to eligible shell startup files, creating recurring shell-startup behavior., The script skips CI and an explicit opt-out, and limits changes to zsh/bash startup files.

- **Evidence against:** The appended integration is labeled and reported to the user; the source describes it as auto-cd for workspace commands., The OpenTUI repair installs only the package’s declared OpenTUI dependencies under its own root., Inspected flagged sources show ordinary CLI, editor-launch, YAML, API, and agent-backend behavior; no unrelated credential forwarding or attack behavior was established.

## Affected versions and remediation
