AI Security Review
scanned 11d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe manifest exposes a CLI and contains no install lifecycle hook. The flagged source behavior is tied to CLI functionality, and inspection found no concrete attack behavior.
Static reason
No blocking static signals were detected.
Trigger
A user runs a CLI command that invokes scaffolding, sharing, or license validation.
Impact
These inspected actions support the CLI’s stated functions; no concrete malicious effect was established.
Mechanism
The CLI creates project files, opens a requested browser URL, and sends a supplied license key to its configured validation endpoint.
AI rationale
The manifest exposes a CLI and contains no install lifecycle hook. The flagged source behavior is tied to CLI functionality, and inspection found no concrete attack behavior.
Evidence
package.jsoncli/index.jscli/scaffold.jscli/navigator-share.jscli/terminal.jscli/license.js
Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Clean at 86.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for AI clean decision
- package.json exposes a CLI and lists no install lifecycle hook.
- The share handler is an explicit function that gathers project and user details for a report.
- Browser opening uses the URL passed to the helper and launches the platform browser.
- License validation sends the supplied key to a configurable gatekeeper endpoint.
- Scaffolding creates files inside the selected project directory when the CLI is run.
