@ayorcodes/claudespace@1.0.4

Open a Claude Code multi-pane terminal workspace with one command (macOS only)

AI Security Review

scanned 20d ago · by lpm-firewall-ai

LPM treats this as warn-only first-party agent extension lifecycle risk. Installing the package runs postinstall, which executes a bundled compiled binary and copies this product's Claude Code commands and related assets into the user's Claude and AI config directories. That is first-party agent extension setup, but it is automatic and the binary cannot be reviewed, so hook or settings writes beyond the package's own command files remain unresolved.

Static reason

One or more suspicious static signals were detected.; source matched previously finalized malicious package; routed for review; source fingerprint signature matched known malicious package; routed for review; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source

Trigger

npm install, via the postinstall script

Impact

The user's Claude Code command files and possibly hooks can change as soon as the package is installed, without a separate setup command.

Mechanism

install-time binary doctor run plus asset sync into Claude Code user config

AI rationale

Readable source shows a Claude Code workspace tool that uses postinstall to install its own commands and run a bundled binary, which is first-party agent extension setup rather than proven theft or remote payload execution. Scanner malware labels track a prior version fingerprint and vendored tmux scripts; those are noisy without an inspectable attack chain.
