Installing the package automatically alters the consumer project and AI-agent plugin state. It also changes user-wide Codex plugin configuration and can launch a detached follow-up process. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 98.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-04T00:01:44.929Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-04T00:03:34.355Z - **Download time:** 3284 ms - **Static scan time:** 24356 ms - **AI review time:** 81785 ms - **Total time:** 109426 ms ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** Installing the package automatically alters the consumer project and AI-agent plugin state. It also changes user-wide Codex plugin configuration and can launch a detached follow-up process. - **Trigger:** npm package installation runs postinstall. - **Impact:** A dependency install can modify project files, install or remove agent extensions, alter user-wide Codex state, and continue changes after the package manager exits. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/install-claude-plugins.sh, dist/utils/postinstall-trampoline.js, dist/core/lisa.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-04T00:03:34.355Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Non-interactive project apply, agent-plugin mutation, and detached postinstall reconciliation. - **Attack narrative:** On installation, the package runs a shell script that applies its CLI to the consumer project with --yes, installs Claude plugins at project scope, and updates their marketplace. It also removes user-wide Codex plugins and marketplace state. If project metadata changes, its CLI can start a detached node -e child that waits for the package manager to exit and re-applies the package. These unconsented install-time changes affect foreign project and AI-agent control surfaces. - **Rationale:** The package performs broad AI-agent and project mutations automatically from postinstall, including user-wide Codex changes and detached follow-up execution. This is a concrete unconsented install-hook attack surface despite no observed credential exfiltration. - **Files touched:** package.json, package-lock.json, .claude/settings.json, .claude/.lisa-plugins-synced, $HOME/.codex/.lisa-legacy-plugins-retired - **Network endpoints:** github.com ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 98.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** Its automatic postinstall invokes a script that changes host-project and agent configuration., The postinstall runs the package CLI non-interactively against the consumer project., It removes user-wide Codex plugins and marketplace registration and writes a marker under the user's Codex directory., It installs Claude plugins at project scope and refreshes their marketplace over the network., It can spawn a detached child after installation to re-apply changes and reconcile the consumer project. - **Evidence against:** No credential harvesting or direct secret exfiltration was found in the inspected lifecycle paths., The package's self-reference is in devDependencies, not a runtime self-dependency. ## Public findings ### 1.
