Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions. AI assessment: suspicious; recommendation: downgrade to warn. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. LPM treats this as warn-only first-party agent extension lifecycle risk. Installation automatically changes the user's Cursor skill control surface. It installs package-provided global rules, overwrites its namespaced copies, and removes its legacy namespace. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 94.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-09T08:19:47.952Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-09T08:21:06.349Z - **Download time:** 1262 ms - **Static scan time:** 10172 ms - **AI review time:** 66960 ms - **Total time:** 78397 ms 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:** Installation automatically changes the user's Cursor skill control surface. It installs package-provided global rules, overwrites its namespaced copies, and removes its legacy namespace. - **Trigger:** Installing the package as a consumer dependency or through npx. - **Impact:** Package-supplied instructions can be injected into future Cursor agent sessions without an install-time prompt. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/install-cursor-skills.mjs, dist/internal/install-cursor-skills.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-09T08:21:06.349Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Postinstall copies and rewrites Cursor skill files with global activation. - **Rationale:** The automatic global Cursor-rule installation is a meaningful unconsented control-surface change. The code appears limited to this vendor's namespaced skills and legacy migration, so source inspection does not establish malware. - **Files touched:** ~/.cursor/skills/agentsdk/\/, ~/.cursor/skills/agentkit/ ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 94.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** The automatic postinstall hook runs a package script., The installer copies package-supplied skills into the user's Cursor skills directory and marks them always active., It overwrites installed skill directories and deletes an older Cursor skill namespace. - **Evidence against:** The manifest has no runtime dependency on this package itself., The inspected installer contains no network request, credential collection, or payload download., The dynamic module loader is for user-authored agent and eval modules, not a hidden payload. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @cursor/july@0.1.103. - Review the evidence and your use of @cursor/july@0.1.103 before allowing it. Restrict the permissions described in this report. - Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe. ## Public findings ### 1. High: Install Time Lifecycle Scripts - **Category:** Manifest - **Confidence:** 90.0% - **Path:** package.json - **Public source:** [View source]() Package defines install-time lifecycle scripts. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```json scripts.postinstall = node -e "try{const p='./scripts/install-cursor-skills.mjs';if(require('fs').existsSync(p))require('child_process').execFileSync(process.execPath,[p],{stdio:'inherit'})}catch{}" ``` ### 2. Critical: Red Install Lifecycle Script - **Category:** Manifest - **Confidence:** 95.0% - **Path:** package.json - **Public source:** [View source]() Install-time lifecycle script matches a deterministic static-gate block pattern. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```json scripts.postinstall = node -e "try{const p='./scripts/install-cursor-skills.mjs';if(require('fs').existsSync(p))require('child_process').execFileSync(process.execPath,[p],{stdio:'inherit'})}catch{}" ``` ### 3. Low: Scripts Present - **Category:** Manifest - **Confidence:** 100.0% Package declares npm scripts. ### 4. Low: Eval - **Category:** Source - **Confidence:** 45.0% - **Path:** dist/channels/slack/eval-directive.js - **Public source:** [View source]() Package source references a known benign dynamic code generation pattern.

Medium: Dynamic Require - **Category:** Source - **Confidence:** 75.0% - **Path:** dist/internal/authored-loaders.js - **Public source:** [View source]() Package source references dynamic require/import behavior. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```javascript L44: * L45: * Node caches `import()` by URL for the life of the process, so a long-lived L46: * `agent-sdk dev` would otherwise keep serving the first load of eval files ``` ### 6. Medium: Network - **Category:** Source - **Confidence:** 75.0% Package source references network APIs. ### 7. Medium: Environment Vars - **Category:** Source - **Confidence:** 75.0% Package source references environment variables. ### 8. Low: Filesystem - **Category:** Source - **Confidence:** 70.0% Package source references filesystem APIs. ### 9. Low: High Entropy Strings - **Category:** Supply Chain - **Confidence:** 55.0% Package source contains high-entropy string patterns. ### 10. Low: Url Strings - **Category:** Supply Chain - **Confidence:** 65.0% Package source contains URL literals. ### 11. Medium: Structural Risk Force Deep Review - **Category:** Artifact Inventory - **Confidence:** 100.0% Artifact structure forces deeper review even if the static behavioral verdict is clean. ### 12. Low: No License - **Category:** Manifest - **Confidence:** 80.0% Package manifest does not declare a clear license. ### 13. High: Semantic Analysis Limited - **Category:** Scanner Coverage - **Confidence:** 100.0% - **Path:** dist/channels.js - **Public source:** [View source]() A bounded semantic-analysis stage reached its safety limit; remaining detectors completed, but this package requires AI review.
