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. Runtime Slack session setup can create a workspace Cursor hook and carrier script to deliver queued Slack follow-ups at tool boundaries. This is a guarded, first-party agent integration capability; no confirmed attack surface was established. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 87.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-09T05:56:24.973Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-09T05:57:04.162Z - **Download time:** 1539 ms - **Static scan time:** 6461 ms - **AI review time:** 31189 ms - **Total time:** 39189 ms The recorded confidence comes from the underlying analysis.

This is a guarded, first-party agent integration capability; no confirmed attack surface was established. - **Trigger:** A local Slack session with a nonempty continuation key, a non-borrowed workspace, and steering disabled. - **Impact:** The hook can run at tool boundaries and supply queued Slack follow-up context to the agent. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-09T05:57:04.162Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The package writes carrier state and a script under .agent-serve, then adds the script command to preToolUse and postToolUse entries in .cursor/hooks.json. - **Rationale:** The package has a postinstall skill installer and a runtime Slack feature that adds Cursor hooks. The hook behavior is gated to first-party Slack session handling, so this warrants a warning for agent extension lifecycle risk rather than a malicious verdict. - **Files touched:** .agent-serve/slack-nudge-root, .agent-serve/slack-nudge-continuation, .agent-serve/slack-nudge-carrier.mjs, .cursor/hooks.json ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 87.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** The package postinstall invokes a bundled Cursor skills installer., Session setup installs the Slack nudge carrier only for Slack sessions with a continuation key, and skips borrowed workspaces and steering-enabled runs., The carrier writes files under the workspace’s .agent-serve directory and adds its command to Cursor preToolUse and postToolUse hooks, preserving other hooks., Slack follow-ups are queued for the carrier when steering is disabled. - **Evidence against:** The hook setup is gated to a first-party Slack feature and local workspace conditions; it is not an npm install mutation of the consumer’s agent configuration., The postinstall installer is best-effort and exits when its bundled entrypoint is missing. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @cursor/july@0.2.21. - Review the evidence and your use of @cursor/july@0.2.21 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.

High: Copied Package Dependency Bridge - **Category:** Source - **Confidence:** 83.0% - **Path:** dist/channels/slack/slack-channel.js - **Public source:** [View source]() Package metadata claims a different repository identity while copied source loads a runtime dependency bridge. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```javascript package = @cursor/july; repositoryIdentity = cursor; dependency = @slack/web-api L194: } L195: const { WebClient } = await import("@slack/web-api"); L196: allowlist.applyResolvedNames(await resolveChannelNames(new WebClient(botToken), names, getLog())); ``` ### 10.
