## Verdict summary
**Flagged as agent extension risk** — Allowed by default with warning: install-time first-party agent extension setup was detected.

- **Verdict:** Suspicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Warn
- **Firewall policy:** Warn-only agent extension risk
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Agent extension lifecycle risk
- **Selected version:** 0.0.31
- **Selected version is latest:** Yes
- **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: suspicious; recommendation: downgrade to warn. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The postinstall hook automatically invokes first-party agent skill setup, which warrants a warning under the agent extension lifecycle policy. The inspected package source does not establish a concrete malicious action or a broader control-surface attack.

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:** The postinstall hook automatically installs the package’s agent skill using the platform-specific CLI. This is a first-party agent extension setup risk; the included source does not establish broader malicious behavior.

- **Trigger:** Installing the npm package, which runs its postinstall hook.

- **Impact:** The installation can write the Customer.io skill into project or global agent skill directories without a separate invocation of the CLI command.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, .npm/postinstall.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-14T09:53:00.837Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The hook selects project or global scope and invokes the platform CLI with \`skills install\`.

- **Rationale:** The postinstall hook automatically invokes first-party agent skill setup, which warrants a warning under the agent extension lifecycle policy. The inspected package source does not establish a concrete malicious action or a broader control-surface attack.

- **Files touched:** .npm/postinstall.js, package.json, ./.claude, ./.agents, ~/.claude, ~/.agents

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 88.0%

- **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for warning:** The manifest registers a postinstall hook that runs the package’s installer script., The hook selects project or global scope and uses the installer's project directory for project installs., The hook launches the platform CLI with the \`skills install\` command automatically., The package describes the installed content as a Customer.io bootstrap skill for agent skill directories., The included launcher forwards commands to a platform-specific binary; its implementation is not present in this package snapshot.

- **Evidence against:** The documented setup is for the package’s own Customer.io agent skill, with project or global scope selected by the install type., The inspected JavaScript delegates to the platform binary and does not establish credential collection or unrelated remote behavior.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to @customerio/cli@0.0.31.

- Review the evidence and your use of @customerio/cli@0.0.31 before allowing it. Restrict the permissions described in this report.
