## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 10 low-signal pattern(s) reviewed.

- **Verdict:** Clean
- **Product-default install policy:** Allow
- **Firewall policy:** No policy match
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** None published
- **Selected version:** 0.104.0
- **Selected version is latest:** No
- **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: clean; recommendation: mark clean. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The package is a content and task-tooling deposit with no install-time execution. Its potentially sensitive actions are explicit user-invoked development tasks, with subprocess handling designed to avoid shell interpolation.

## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** No confirmed malicious attack surface. Installation declares no preinstall/install/postinstall hook; shipped helpers require explicit task or Git-hook activation.

- **Trigger:** Explicit \`task setup\`, Task invocation, or configured Git hook execution.

- **Impact:** Can configure this repository's Git hooks and run local Deft commands after user activation; no credential harvesting, exfiltration, or stealth persistence was found.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, Taskfile.yml, .githooks/pre-commit, .githooks/pre-push, tasks/engine-invoke.cjs, tasks/engine-pm-run.cjs, tasks/deployments.yml

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-08-14T23:17:27.991Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** User-invoked local development automation and CLI dispatch.

- **Rationale:** The package is a content and task-tooling deposit with no install-time execution. Its potentially sensitive actions are explicit user-invoked development tasks, with subprocess handling designed to avoid shell interpolation.

- **Files touched:** package.json, .githooks/pre-commit, .githooks/pre-push, .githooks/\_deft-run.sh, Taskfile.yml, tasks/engine-invoke.cjs, tasks/engine-pm-run.cjs, tasks/deployments.yml

- **Network endpoints:** https://github.com/adhocteam/cloud-gov-instructions/archive/refs/tags/{{.CLOUDGOV\_VERSION}}.tar.gz

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 96.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** No npm install lifecycle hook is declared; scripts are packaging-only., Git-hook configuration requires explicit \`task setup\` execution., CLI subprocess helper uses literal non-shell spawning.

- **Evidence against:** Package ships user-invoked Git hooks and task helpers., An explicit cloudgov sync task downloads a pinned GitHub release.
