Install-time code unconditionally replaces a narrowly named qgrid skill in Codex and Claude project/global skill locations. This is a first-party extension installation, not a confirmed payload or exfiltration chain. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 94.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-08T11:49:41.295Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-08T11:50:40.108Z - **Download time:** 1014 ms - **Static scan time:** 8064 ms - **AI review time:** 49734 ms - **Total time:** 58813 ms ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** Install-time code unconditionally replaces a narrowly named qgrid skill in Codex and Claude project/global skill locations. This is a first-party extension installation, not a confirmed payload or exfiltration chain. - **Trigger:** npm postinstall during local or global installation - **Impact:** Changes agent instructions in the installing project or user skill directories. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, postinstall.mjs, skills/qgrid/SKILL.md, README.md, dist/cli.js, bundle/src/utils/providers/openai/codex-worker.ts - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-08T11:50:40.108Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** automatic deletion and symlink/copy of qgrid AI-agent skills - **Rationale:** This is an unconsented postinstall mutation of AI-agent extension locations, so it warrants a warning. Its scope is a first-party qgrid skill and source inspection found no concrete malicious chain. - **Files touched:** .agents/skills/qgrid, .claude/skills/qgrid, ~/.codex/skills/qgrid, ~/.claude/skills/qgrid, skills/qgrid ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 94.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** package.json runs postinstall.mjs automatically., postinstall.mjs removes and replaces .agents/skills/qgrid and .claude/skills/qgrid., Global installs copy the same skill to ~/.codex/skills/qgrid and ~/.claude/skills/qgrid. - **Evidence against:** README.md documents the automatic skill synchronization., skills/qgrid/SKILL.md is qgrid-specific development guidance, with no credential or exfiltration directives., The runtime Codex worker uses a temporary CODEX\_HOME and disables shell, web, apps, plugins, and skills., dist/cli.js process/network behavior is user-invoked proxy setup and dependency updates. ## Public findings ### 1.
