Installing the package runs a non-interactive bootstrap that mutates the host project's AI-agent configuration. It also performs a one-time cleanup of named legacy Lisa registrations in the user's Codex configuration. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 95.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-18T20:46:43.292Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-18T20:48:19.467Z - **Download time:** 3031 ms - **Static scan time:** 16400 ms - **AI review time:** 76742 ms - **Total time:** 96175 ms ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** Installing the package runs a non-interactive bootstrap that mutates the host project's AI-agent configuration. It also performs a one-time cleanup of named legacy Lisa registrations in the user's Codex configuration. - **Trigger:** npm postinstall - **Impact:** Adds/updates project .codex and .claude controls; removes legacy Lisa-only global Codex registrations. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/install-claude-plugins.sh, dist/codex/project-overlay.js, dist/codex/settings-installer.js, dist/codex/agent-installer.js, dist/cli/update-check.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-18T20:48:19.467Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** host project AI-agent configuration and hook installation - **Rationale:** The package makes unprompted postinstall mutations to project AI-agent controls, so it warrants a warning. Its ownership boundaries and package-aligned update check do not establish malicious behavior. - **Files touched:** package.json, scripts/install-claude-plugins.sh, \/.claude/settings.json, \/.codex/config.toml, \/.codex/agents/lisa/, \/.codex/.lisa-managed.json, $HOME/.codex/.lisa-legacy-plugins-retired - **Network endpoints:** https://registry.npmjs.org/@codyswann/lisa/latest ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 95.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** postinstall invokes Lisa CLI non-interactively on the host project., postinstall removes named user-wide Codex Lisa plugins and its marketplace., Lisa reconciles agents, settings, MCP, skills, and marketplace into host .codex., It enables Codex hooks in host .codex/config.toml and rewrites stale Claude hook entries. - **Evidence against:** Codex writes are project-scoped and Lisa-managed; stale deletion is restricted to Lisa-owned paths., Observed network lookup is a package-aligned npm version check; no credential harvesting or exfiltration found., The hinted Python path was absent; matching files are readable source scripts, not hidden payloads. ## Public findings ### 1.
