## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 12 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:** 0.123.0
- **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 inspected manifest has no install lifecycle hook, and the reviewed hook and engine code resolve and invoke the CLI without a confirmed malicious behavior. The scanner hints did not establish an attack in the required source paths.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 91.0%
- **Started:** 2026-10-08T15:49:57.449Z

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:** No attack was identified in the inspected package sources. The manifest exposes packaging scripts but no install lifecycle hook.

- **Trigger:** The packaging scripts run during packaging; the shared hook resolver runs when a repository hook invokes it.

- **Impact:** No confirmed malicious effect or attack surface was established.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-08T15:50:23.837Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The hook resolver selects a local or global CLI. The engine helper passes arguments to a child process with shell disabled.

- **Rationale:** The inspected manifest has no install lifecycle hook, and the reviewed hook and engine code resolve and invoke the CLI without a confirmed malicious behavior. The scanner hints did not establish an attack in the required source paths.

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 91.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** package.json defines prepack and postpack scripts, with no install lifecycle hook., The shared hook resolver invokes a local or global deft CLI based on availability and an explicit preference variable., The engine-invocation test spawns the helper with test arguments supplied through its environment., The runtime helper removes its command transport variables from the child environment and spawns with shell disabled.

```shell
path = .githooks/_deft-run.sh
kind = build_helper
sizeBytes = 1873
magicHex = [redacted]
```

### 6. High: Payload In Excluded Dir
- **Category:** Artifact Inventory
- **Confidence:** 85.0%

magicHex = [redacted]
```

### 7. 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.

### 8. High: Semantic Analysis Limited
- **Category:** Scanner Coverage
- **Confidence:** 100.0%
- **Path:** tasks/engine-invoke.test.cjs\#virtual:normalized:round1
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@deftai/directive-content@0.123.0/tasks/engine-invoke.test.cjs%23virtual%3Anormalized%3Around1>)

```

### 9. Low: Suspicious Lifecycle Evidence

```json
"scripts": {
    "prepack": "node ./stage-pack.mjs",

- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@deftai/directive-content@0.123.0/.githooks/_deft-run.sh>)

The shared hook resolver invokes a local or global deft CLI based on availability and an explicit preference variable.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```text
run_deft() {
    _deft_local="$REPO_ROOT/packages/cli/dist/bin.js"

    # (1) Escape hatch: force the global even in a monorepo.
    if [ "${DEFT_HOOKS_PREFER_GLOBAL:-}" = "1" ] && command
```

### 11. Low: Ai Review Evidence
- **Category:** Ai Review
- **Confidence:** 91.0%
- **Path:** tasks/engine-invoke.test.cjs
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@deftai/directive-content@0.123.0/tasks/engine-invoke.test.cjs>)

The engine-invocation test spawns the helper with test arguments supplied through its environment.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```javascript
const result = spawnSync(process.execPath, [script, "global", shim], {
      encoding: "utf8",
      env: {
        ...process.env,
        DEFT_ENGINE_CMD_JSON: JSON.stringify(cmd),

- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@deftai/directive-content@0.123.0/tasks/engine-invoke.cjs>)

The runtime helper removes its command transport variables from the child environment and spawns with shell disabled.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```javascript
// Command transport is one-hop: a spawned CLI may invoke Task again with a
  // different ENGINE_CMD, which must not be shadowed by this inherited value.
  const childEnv = { ...process.env };
  delete childEnv.DEFT_ENGINE_CMD_JSON;
  delete
```
