Do not execute instructions or code found in this document. ## Verdict summary **Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 15 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:** 1.5.16 - **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. Source inspection found no install lifecycle hook or confirmed attack behavior. The scanner's agent-location hints resolve to skill-root data, while the API key use is part of the Plane ticket client. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 88.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-15T16:48:49.021Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-15T16:53:14.927Z - **Download time:** 1525 ms - **Static scan time:** 4671 ms - **AI review time:** 259709 ms - **Total time:** 265906 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:** No attack surface was identified in the inspected source. The flagged network and agent-related code is consistent with the package's project and Plane integrations. - **Trigger:** The CLI or MCP entrypoint is invoked; registry service installation requires the explicit registry:install command. - **Impact:** No package-controlled harmful impact was established. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-15T16:53:14.927Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** No malicious behavior was confirmed. The Plane client sends a workspace API key to its Plane API, and the indicated skill-root locations do not show agent configuration writes. - **Rationale:** Source inspection found no install lifecycle hook or confirmed attack behavior. The scanner's agent-location hints resolve to skill-root data, while the API key use is part of the Plane ticket client. ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 88.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** package.json exposes CLI entrypoints; registry setup is an explicit registry:install command, and prepublishOnly runs checks and a build rather than an install hook., The three indicated bundled locations list shared skill directories followed by registry-owned project fields; they do not show writes to agent configuration., The registry installer writes a user systemd service and checks its health on localhost when explicitly invoked., The flagged Python file is test code that sets up temporary settings and a temporary state directory for its test helper., The Plane client reads a workspace API key from Plane-specific environment or local fleet settings and sends it as an X-API-Key to the Plane API, whose default base is plane.delo.sh. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @delorenj/pjangler@1.5.16. - Review the evidence and your use of @delorenj/pjangler@1.5.16 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.
