Installation changes files that guide coding agents and alters project build commands without a separate setup command. - **Verdict:** AI-agent control-surface policy finding - **Product-default install policy:** Warn by default; block when configured - **Firewall policy:** Warn by default - **Public report status:** Published - **Threat category:** Soft block: AI-agent control surface - **Selected version:** 0.8.8 - **Selected version is latest:** Yes - **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai) This finding concerns changes to an AI agent's instructions or configuration without explicit user action. It does not by itself establish malware intent. The CLI warns by default and blocks when configured for this policy. AI assessment: malicious; recommendation: publish block. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. Source confirms that package installation automatically mutates consumer AGENTS.md or CLAUDE.md files and rewrites package scripts. This is an unconsented lifecycle change to agent control files, supporting a block despite the package context being product-focused and no network transfer being shown. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 93.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-21T10:18:53.323Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-21T10:19:34.773Z - **Download time:** 2025 ms - **Static scan time:** 3100 ms - **AI review time:** 36324 ms - **Total time:** 41450 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 install hook automatically changes the consumer project's agent instruction files and package scripts. - **Trigger:** Installing the package when setup is not skipped and its context file exists. - **Impact:** Installation changes files that guide coding agents and alters project build commands without a separate setup command. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/postinstall.cjs, BFRS\_AGENTIC\_COMPONENTS.md - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-21T10:19:34.773Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The hook copies package context into the consumer project, appends a reference to AGENTS.md or CLAUDE.md, and adds a lint guard to package scripts. - **Attack narrative:** The package declares an automatic postinstall hook. In consumer lifecycle context, unless setup is skipped, the hook copies its context file into the project, edits agent instruction files, and changes package scripts. This is an unrequested install-time mutation of the consumer's agent control surface and build configuration. - **Rationale:** Source confirms that package installation automatically mutates consumer AGENTS.md or CLAUDE.md files and rewrites package scripts. This is an unconsented lifecycle change to agent control files, supporting a block despite the package context being product-focused and no network transfer being shown. - **Files touched:** AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, package.json, BFRS\_AGENTIC\_COMPONENTS.md ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 93.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for policy risk:** package.json runs scripts/postinstall.cjs automatically during installation., The hook targets consumer-project AGENTS.md and CLAUDE.md files and appends a reference to package-provided agent context., The hook copies that context into the consumer project and writes a lint command into its package.json scripts., The hook also prepends its lint command to selected consumer build scripts. - **Evidence against:** The appended agent reference points to package context about using the component library; the inspected source shows no credential collection or network transfer. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @bfrs/agentic-components@0.8.8. - Avoid installing @bfrs/agentic-components@0.8.8. Remove it from direct dependencies and check your lockfile for transitive copies. - Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe. - If this version ran, investigate the affected machine and build environment. Rotate credentials it could access and rebuild from a trusted environment. ## Public findings ### 1.
