Installing the package automatically applies templates to the consumer project and alters AI-agent plugin configuration.

It also performs project-scoped Claude plugin installation and user-wide Codex plugin removal. - **Trigger:** npm package installation runs postinstall. - **Impact:** A dependency installation can change consumer project files, install agent plugins, and remove user-level Codex registrations without an explicit command. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/install-claude-plugins.sh - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-04T05:12:09.948Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Non-interactive lifecycle-driven project and agent configuration mutation. - **Attack narrative:** The package's postinstall runs automatically. For a consumer project it invokes the Lisa CLI with --yes and the project root, then installs Claude plugins at project scope. The same path removes named Codex plugins and the lisa marketplace from user-wide configuration, and failures are ignored. These are unconsented lifecycle changes to both the host project and AI-agent control surfaces. - **Rationale:** This is concrete unconsented postinstall mutation of a consumer project's AI-agent configuration, with additional user-wide Codex changes. The code does not show secret theft, but the automatic control-surface changes meet the blocking policy. - **Files touched:** package.json, .claude/settings.json, .claude/.lisa-plugins-synced, $HOME/.codex/.lisa-legacy-plugins-retired, $HOME/.claude/plugins/marketplaces/lisa ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 98.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** The automatic postinstall hook runs a shell installer in every consumer install., That installer invokes Lisa non-interactively against the consumer project root., It installs Claude plugins at project scope and can update the marketplace., It removes legacy Codex plugins and a marketplace from the user's home configuration., The lifecycle hook suppresses failures, making these mutations easy for an installer to miss. - **Evidence against:** No credential harvesting or data-exfiltration code was confirmed in the inspected lifecycle path., The self dependency is limited to devDependencies, not a runtime nested-install chain. ## Public findings ### 1.
