It writes to multiple user-home AI assistant control surfaces, including Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, and GitHub Copilot. - **Trigger:** npm installation, via the postinstall lifecycle hook. - **Impact:** Modifies broad, foreign AI-agent configuration/control surfaces and can alter future agent behavior. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, bin/postinstall.js, bin/cli.js, dist/index.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-09T12:42:02.096Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Unconsented forced AI-agent skill and agent-file installation. - **Attack narrative:** On npm install, package.json invokes bin/postinstall.js. That hook silently executes the package CLI with \`skill install --force\`; the bundled CLI writes skill content to detected AI-editor directories and creates agent files in ~/.claude, ~/.github, and ~/.codex. This is an unconsented install-time mutation of broad third-party AI-agent control surfaces. - **Rationale:** The install hook performs forced, silent writes to foreign AI-assistant configuration locations without an explicit user command. This meets the firewall block policy for unconsented postinstall AI-agent control-surface mutation. - **Files touched:** package.json, bin/postinstall.js, bin/cli.js, dist/index.js, ~/.claude/skills/\*/SKILL.md, ~/.cursor/skills/\*/SKILL.md, ~/.codex/skills/\*/SKILL.md, ~/.claude/agents/\*, ~/.github/agents/\*, ~/.codex/agents/\* ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 98.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** package.json runs bin/postinstall.js on npm install., bin/postinstall.js silently runs \`skill install --force\` without user action., dist/index.js writes skills into AI assistant directories under the home directory., dist/index.js also creates agent files in ~/.claude, ~/.github, and ~/.codex., Forced install can overwrite existing assistant skill files. - **Evidence against:** The postinstall hook contains no direct network request or credential exfiltration., The configured external-skill list is empty. ## Public findings ### 1.
