## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** Installing the package overwrites the consumer project's README.md with the package README. This is an unconsented destructive project-file mutation.

- **Trigger:** npm install, via postinstall

- **Impact:** Destroys or replaces existing project documentation.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/postinstall.mjs, README.md

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-08-23T01:11:26.324Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** postinstall writeFileSync to project-root README.md

- **Attack narrative:** On installation, npm runs scripts/postinstall.mjs. It selects INIT\_CWD or the current working directory as the consumer project root, reads this package's README.md, and writes it to projectRoot/README.md without preserving an existing file. The script explicitly treats an existing README as an update, so ordinary dependency installation can destroy project-owned documentation.

- **Rationale:** The package performs a concrete, unconsented, install-time overwrite of a foreign project file. Other flagged primitives are framework functionality and do not mitigate this destructive lifecycle behavior.

- **Files touched:** scripts/postinstall.mjs, README.md

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Malicious

- **Confidence:** 98.0%

- **Recommended action:** publish\_block

- **Intent class:** Malware

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for:** npm postinstall automatically runs a package script., The installer targets the invoking project root and overwrites its README.md, including an existing file., The replacement content is the package's own README.

- **Evidence against:** Installer has no network, credential-harvesting, or shell-execution behavior., The overwrite is logged rather than hidden.
