## Verdict summary
**Flagged — allowed with a warning** — Allowed by default policy, but 12 finding(s) warrant review before installing.

- **Verdict:** Suspicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Warn
- **Firewall policy:** Matched warn-list
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** None published
- **Selected version:** 0.73.0
- **Selected version is latest:** Yes
- **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai)

The AI recommended clean. Static policy retained a warning. The static scanner classified the package as malicious with confidence of at least 85%. A critical static finding has confidence of at least 90%. These conditions do not mean that the AI confirmed malicious behavior.

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

No attack was identified in the inspected package sources. The flagged process and network behavior runs a local OpenCode server and checks its readiness over loopback.

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 in the inspected package sources. The flagged process and network behavior runs a local OpenCode server and checks its readiness over loopback.

- **Trigger:** Importing the package entrypoint or invoking the serve launcher.

- **Impact:** No malicious effect was established from the inspected behavior.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-07T23:54:22.887Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The launcher starts the OpenCode binary on 127.0.0.1 and sends a Basic-authenticated readiness request to that local server; the flagged plugin location is documentation.

- **Rationale:** Source inspection found no install lifecycle hook or concrete malicious behavior. The reverse-shell-style scanner hint corresponds to launching OpenCode locally and probing its loopback server; the flagged plugin location is documentation rather than a configuration write.

- **Files touched:** package.json, dist/index.js, dist/serve.js, dist/plugin/index.js

- **Network endpoints:** 127.0.0.1

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 96.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Final policy explanation:** The AI recommended clean. Static policy retained a warning. The static scanner classified the package as malicious with confidence of at least 85%. A critical static finding has confidence of at least 90%. These conditions do not mean that the AI confirmed malicious behavior.

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** package.json exports dist/index.js and defines no install lifecycle hook., dist/serve.js launches the configured OpenCode binary as a serve process bound to 127.0.0.1., dist/serve.js sends its authenticated readiness request to that same loopback server., The flagged dist/plugin/index.js location is documentation describing user-local persona files and examples, not an agent configuration mutation., The OpenCode launch passes its supplied credentials, servers, and user-auth data to materialEnv.
