## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 12 low-signal pattern(s) reviewed.

- **Verdict:** Clean
- **Product-default install policy:** Allow
- **Firewall policy:** No policy match
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** None published
- **Selected version:** 0.128.0
- **Selected version is latest:** No
- **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai)

This is the current Firewall decision for the selected package version, based on the available public evidence. Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions.

AI assessment: clean; recommendation: mark clean. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The suspicious scanner hints resolve to ordinary generator behavior, a sample test, and development environment defaults. I found no install-time execution, embedded credential, or concrete malicious behavior in the inspected source.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 92.0%
- **Started:** 2026-10-11T11:25:24.631Z

The recorded confidence comes from the underlying analysis. Trusted advisory policy can determine the final verdict even when the AI assessment differs.

## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** No attack was identified. The package provides a user-invoked project generator with a conditional version check and optional dependency installation.

- **Trigger:** A user runs the create-corva-app command and selects options for a new project.

- **Impact:** No confirmed attack surface was established from the inspected source.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-11T11:26:09.173Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The generator copies templates into the target project; for UI apps it checks the package registry for the latest version.

- **Rationale:** The suspicious scanner hints resolve to ordinary generator behavior, a sample test, and development environment defaults. I found no install-time execution, embedded credential, or concrete malicious behavior in the inspected source.

- **Files touched:** package.json, bin/create-corva-app.cjs, lib/commands/create.js, lib/helpers/cli-version.js, common/node/.env, templates/scheduler\_natural-time/python/test/app\_test.py

- **Network endpoints:** https://registry.npmjs.org/@corva/create-app/latest

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 92.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The manifest exposes a user-run project generator and has no install lifecycle hook., The flagged Python file is a short test that constructs a sample event and invokes the app runner., The generator checks the npm registry only when creating a UI app; it uses that response to compare versions., The generator’s dependency installation is conditional on the user-selected option., The flagged environment file has an empty API key and references variable placeholders.
