# @canonry/canonry@7.15.0 npm security report

## Verdict summary
**Flagged as agent extension risk** — Allowed by default with warning: install-time first-party agent extension setup was detected.

- **Verdict:** Suspicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Warn
- **Firewall policy:** Warn-only agent extension risk
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Agent extension lifecycle risk
- **Selected version:** 7.15.0
- **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 scanner's credential and phishing hints were not supported by the inspected source excerpts. Explicit CLI setup performs first-party agent integration, which merits a warning under the supplied agent integration policy, but no concrete malicious behavior was established.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 77.0%
- **Started:** 2026-10-08T22:33:58.101Z
- **Finished:** 2026-10-08T22:34:44.000Z
- **Download time:** 1274 ms
- **Static scan time:** 15737 ms
- **AI review time:** 28887 ms
- **Total time:** 45899 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 CLI can add or update the package's own agent skills and register its MCP server during explicit setup. No confirmed malicious attack surface was established.

- **Trigger:** A user explicitly runs the CLI setup flow in a project directory.

- **Impact:** Agent sessions may load the package's own skills or MCP server configuration; inspected code did not establish credential theft or unrelated remote execution.

- **Evidence paths:** dist/cli.js, dist/chunk-SGQBPTWQ.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-08T22:34:44.000Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The setup flow installs bundled skills and invokes MCP registration for Claude Code.

- **Rationale:** The scanner's credential and phishing hints were not supported by the inspected source excerpts. Explicit CLI setup performs first-party agent integration, which merits a warning under the supplied agent integration policy, but no concrete malicious behavior was established.

- **Files touched:** .claude/skills/, .codex/skills/, .mcp.json

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 77.0%

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

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for warning:** package.json exposes CLI commands and a library entrypoint, with no lifecycle hook listed., The CLI setup path automatically installs Canonry skills and registers its MCP server when explicitly invoked in a project., The skills installer copies missing or stale bundled skill files into agent skill directories., The flagged integration locations concern project-local agent skills, plugin update hints, and MCP client configuration paths., The inspected provider diagnostic reports configured providers and key sources without sending credentials.

- **Evidence against:** No inspected source established credential forwarding to an unrelated gateway or browser credential collection., The inspected agent setup is part of an explicit CLI setup flow; package.json has no install lifecycle hook.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to @canonry/canonry@7.15.0.

- Review the evidence and your use of @canonry/canonry@7.15.0 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.
