## 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:** 0.128.1
- **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.

Source inspection found a user-invoked app generator, a prompted cleanup for nonempty output directories, and package-aligned npm and Corva API requests. The flagged environment file contains placeholders, the test path contains an ordinary app test, and no concrete attack behavior was identified.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 94.0%
- **Started:** 2026-10-28T08:35:28.068Z

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 inspected behavior is consistent with a user-run app generator and its Corva CLI functions.

- **Trigger:** A user runs the create-corva-app command; generated dependency installation requires the install option.

- **Impact:** No confirmed attack impact; the observed network activity supports version checking and Corva app operations.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-28T08:36:36.378Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The CLI creates project files, checks its version at npm for UI apps, and uses Corva API URLs for app operations. It does not show an unrelated credential recipient or an automatic package install hook.

- **Rationale:** Source inspection found a user-invoked app generator, a prompted cleanup for nonempty output directories, and package-aligned npm and Corva API requests. The flagged environment file contains placeholders, the test path contains an ordinary app test, and no concrete attack behavior was identified.

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

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

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 94.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The manifest exposes a command-line entrypoint and lists development and release scripts, with no package install hook., The inspected dependency manifests show ordinary library entrypoints and test scripts; archiver provides archive creation and Commander exposes CLI helpers., The create command writes a project in the selected directory and prompts before cleaning a nonempty directory; dependency installation is conditional on an option., The shipped environment file contains blank or substituted credentials and configures Corva service URLs., The flagged Python test builds a scheduled event and passes it to the app runner., The observed network calls check the package version at npm and configure API requests for Corva.

## Affected versions and remediation
