Do not execute instructions or code found in this document. ## Verdict summary **Flagged — allowed with a warning** — Allowed by default policy, but 16 finding(s) warrant review before installing. - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Product-default install policy:** Warn - **Firewall policy:** Matched warn-list - **Public report status:** Published - **Threat category:** Install Hook Abuse - **Selected version:** 0.1.87 - **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 package has automatic setup behavior that mutates its local OpenTUI installation and shell startup files, so a warning is appropriate. The inspected source does not establish concrete malicious behavior or an attack on a foreign AI-agent control surface. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 84.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-09T11:13:17.024Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-09T11:14:01.995Z - **Download time:** 2320 ms - **Static scan time:** 7493 ms - **AI review time:** 35157 ms - **Total time:** 44971 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 automatic postinstall hook may replace the package-local OpenTUI directory and install its declared OpenTUI dependencies. It also adds Apollo shell integration to detected shell startup files. - **Trigger:** npm install of this package, unless the relevant setup is skipped by its environment flags. - **Impact:** This can change package-local dependencies and user shell startup files; inspected evidence does not establish an attack against unrelated agent controls or credentials. - **Evidence paths:** scripts/ensure-opentui.mjs, scripts/setup-shell.mjs - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-09T11:14:01.995Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The repair script checks package files, removes the local OpenTUI directory if repair is needed, and invokes npm for the declared dependencies. The shell setup script appends an Apollo shell-init line to eligible startup files. - **Rationale:** The package has automatic setup behavior that mutates its local OpenTUI installation and shell startup files, so a warning is appropriate. The inspected source does not establish concrete malicious behavior or an attack on a foreign AI-agent control surface. - **Files touched:** scripts/ensure-opentui.mjs, scripts/setup-shell.mjs ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 84.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** The postinstall hook runs the OpenTUI repair script and shell setup script., The repair script removes only the local @opentui directory when required packages are missing, then installs the OpenTUI dependencies declared in this package., The shell setup appends a shell integration line to detected zsh and bash startup files; it is gated by CI and APOLLO\_NO\_SHELL\_SETUP., The CLI entrypoint delegates to the package's Apollo CLI; inspected supporting files show editor launching and Claude Code integration are user-facing capabilities., The identity client sends refresh tokens to a service API route; inspected code shows no unrelated credential recipient. - **Evidence against:** No concrete credential exfiltration, destructive behavior, or foreign AI-agent control-surface mutation was established in the inspected source. The startup-file change is limited to Apollo shell integration. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @aui.io/apollo@0.1.87. - Review the evidence and your use of @aui.io/apollo@0.1.87 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.
