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. A local Slack session can install a Cursor hook in its harness workspace to pass new Slack follow-ups to the active agent at tool boundaries. This is a guarded, first-party agent integration; no confirmed attack was identified. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 90.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-09T05:56:19.024Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-09T05:56:58.339Z - **Download time:** 5404 ms - **Static scan time:** 6289 ms - **AI review time:** 27622 ms - **Total time:** 39315 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:** A local Slack session can install a Cursor hook in its harness workspace to pass new Slack follow-ups to the active agent at tool boundaries. This is a guarded, first-party agent integration; no confirmed attack was identified. - **Trigger:** A local Slack session proceeds with a nonempty continuation key while steering is disabled and the workspace is not borrowed. - **Impact:** The active agent can receive queued Slack follow-ups during a turn; hook configuration in that workspace is modified. - **Evidence paths:** dist/channels/slack/nudge-carrier.js, dist/internal/session-engine.js, dist/channels/slack/slack-channel.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-09T05:56:58.339Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The package writes nudge pointer files, reads \`.cursor/hooks.json\`, and adds a carrier command to pre-tool and post-tool hooks. - **Rationale:** The flagged hook mutation occurs during a guarded local Slack session, not from the package installation lifecycle. It supports Slack follow-up delivery, so the agent configuration capability merits a warning, but the inspected source does not establish an attack. - **Files touched:** .cursor/hooks.json, .agent-serve/slack-nudge-root, .agent-serve/slack-nudge-continuation, .agent-serve/slack-nudge-carrier.mjs ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 90.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** A local Slack session with a continuation key can add \`.cursor\` and nudge pointer files in its harness workspace., The engine skips borrowed workspaces and installs the carrier only when steering is disabled; its nudge data is rooted under the session state directory., The carrier reads existing Cursor hooks and adds its command to pre-tool and post-tool hooks., The package postinstall invokes a script that copies BDK skills; this does not establish the Slack hook behavior as an npm install action. - **Evidence against:** The hook setup is gated to Slack sessions with a continuation key and excludes borrowed workspaces., The carrier is designed to deliver Slack follow-ups at tool boundaries, and the source shows no network endpoint or credential forwarding in this setup. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @cursor/july@0.2.15. - Review the evidence and your use of @cursor/july@0.2.15 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.

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 L37: * L38: * Node caches `import()` by URL for the life of the process, so a long-lived L39: * `agent-sdk dev` would otherwise keep serving the first load of eval files ``` ### 6.
