## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 17 low-signal pattern(s) reviewed.

- **Verdict:** Clean
- **Product-default install policy:** Allow
- **Firewall policy:** No policy match
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** None published
- **Selected version:** 26.10.10-75
- **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: clean; recommendation: mark clean. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The postinstall lifecycle is limited to printing a hint, while configuration writes are gated behind explicit wizard use and edit paths are workspace constrained. The scanner’s lifecycle and agent configuration signals do not establish an unconsented install-time attack.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 93.0%
- **Started:** 2026-10-10T16:43:47.567Z

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:** No attack was identified in the inspected lifecycle and file mutation paths.

- **Trigger:** Package installation triggers the declared postinstall script; project configuration changes require explicit wizard invocation.

- **Impact:** No confirmed covert mutation, exfiltration, or other attack surface was established from these inspected paths.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-10T16:44:19.772Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** Postinstall emits a setup hint. The wizard applies project writes only outside dry-run mode and when no write refusal exists; edit operations resolve paths within the workspace.

- **Rationale:** The postinstall lifecycle is limited to printing a hint, while configuration writes are gated behind explicit wizard use and edit paths are workspace constrained. The scanner’s lifecycle and agent configuration signals do not establish an unconsented install-time attack.

- **Files touched:** package.json, cli/postinstall.js, cli/pillars-wizard.js, cli/apply-edits.js

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 93.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The package postinstall invokes a script that only prints a hint when run directly; it does not perform configuration writes., The wizard writes project settings only when explicitly invoked with write enabled, and skips writes for dry runs or refused plans., The edit utility constrains edit paths to the workspace and validates changes before commit.

- **Evidence against:** The wizard can write configuration and host shim files into a project when explicitly run with write enabled.
