Version-aware project knowledge ingestion and retrieval for DevFlow.
AI Security Review
scanned 19d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe postinstall hook is browser setup, while the inspected runtime network and git operations serve the package’s documentation ingestion APIs. No concrete attack behavior was found.
Static reason
One or more suspicious static signals were detected.
Trigger
Package installation runs the postinstall hook; documentation requests occur when the sync or fetch APIs are invoked.
Impact
These behaviors install a browser and retrieve documentation; inspected source does not show credential collection, unrelated data transfer, or harmful system changes.
Mechanism
The hook invokes Playwright’s Chromium installer. Runtime fetchers retrieve documentation from Context7, GitHub, or a supplied URL; the GitHub fetcher uses git to clone the configured repository.
AI rationale
The postinstall hook is browser setup, while the inspected runtime network and git operations serve the package’s documentation ingestion APIs. No concrete attack behavior was found.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Clean at 97.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for AI clean decision
- The postinstall command installs Chromium for the package’s Playwright browser support.
- The package exports documentation fetchers, and its Context7 requests target the Context7 API.
- The GitHub fetcher clones the configured repository and documentation sync calls it for built-in sources.
Evidence against
- The package has a postinstall hook and runtime network and subprocess operations; inspected source ties these to browser setup and documentation retrieval.
