## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** Installation unconditionally mutates AI-agent configuration surfaces. It removes user-wide Codex plugins/marketplace and writes a persistent marker, while also modifying project agent configuration.

- **Trigger:** npm postinstall

- **Impact:** Can alter or remove a user's broad Codex control surface without an explicit user command.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/install-claude-plugins.sh, dist/codex/project-overlay.js, plugins/lisa-expo/.codex-plugin/skills/container-view-pattern/scripts/validate\_component.py

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-07-25T22:44:00.058Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** Codex plugin/marketplace removal plus project Claude/Codex overlay reconciliation

- **Attack narrative:** On npm postinstall, the package invokes a shell script that removes user-wide Codex Lisa plugins and its marketplace through the Codex CLI, writes a marker under the user's .codex directory, and modifies project agent configuration. These changes occur without an explicit setup command.

- **Rationale:** The package has concrete unconsented postinstall mutation of a foreign, user-wide AI-agent control surface. This meets the blocking policy despite benign validation and explicit deploy-key utilities.

- **Files touched:** $HOME/.codex/.lisa-legacy-plugins-retired, .claude/settings.json, .claude/.lisa-plugins-synced, .safety-net.json, .codex

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Malicious

- **Confidence:** 98.0%

- **Recommended action:** publish\_block

- **Intent class:** Malware

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for:** package.json invokes scripts/install-claude-plugins.sh in postinstall., Postinstall calls codex plugin remove for Lisa plugins and codex plugin marketplace remove lisa., It writes $HOME/.codex/.lisa-legacy-plugins-retired., Postinstall applies templates and edits project .claude/settings.json without user command., dist/codex/project-overlay.js installs project Codex agents, settings, MCP config, skills, and marketplace entries.

- **Evidence against:** No credential harvesting or direct exfiltration found in inspected lifecycle sources., The flagged Python file is a readable local component validator, not a hidden payload., Deploy-key creation is limited to the explicit setup-deploy-key command.
