It also obtains and executes/builds remote installer or Git source under install-time conditions. - **Trigger:** npm installation with lifecycle scripts enabled; subsequent OpenCode plugin load. - **Impact:** Activates a third-party agent plugin, changes default agent selection, and configures remote MCP channels that may receive configured API credentials. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, postinstall.mjs, dist/index.js, bin/flowdeck.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-11T01:35:39.974Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** unconsented OpenCode config mutation plus install-time remote code acquisition - **Attack narrative:** Installing the package runs postinstall.mjs without an explicit FlowDeck command. It creates or rewrites OpenCode's user configuration to enable the package and select its orchestrator. The lifecycle hook can clone Git source, install Rust via a downloaded installer, and compile/install fdx. When OpenCode loads the plugin, dist/index.js adds enabled remote MCP services, attaching Context7, Exa, and GitHub credentials when those environment variables exist. - **Rationale:** The package performs unconsented postinstall mutation of a foreign AI-agent configuration and enables external agent control channels. This meets the firewall blocking boundary even though some functionality is documented. - **Files touched:** ~/.config/opencode/opencode.json, $OPENCODE\_CONFIG\_DIR/opencode.json, ~/.local/share/flowdeck, ~/.cargo/bin/fdx, ~/.rustup-init.exe - **Network endpoints:** https://github.com/DVNghiem/FlowDeck.git, https://win.rustup.rs/x86\_64, https://sh.rustup.rs, https://mcp.context7.com/mcp, https://mcp.exa.ai/mcp?tools=web\_search\_exa, https://mcp.grep.app, https://api.githubcopilot.com/mcp/ ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 97.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** package.json runs postinstall automatically., postinstall.mjs writes the user OpenCode config and registers this plugin., postinstall.mjs sets default\_agent to orchestrator without consent., postinstall.mjs clones remote Git code and builds/installs fdx during install., dist/index.js injects enabled remote MCP endpoints and credential headers into OpenCode config. - **Evidence against:** The package identifies its OpenCode integration in source and documentation., CLI configuration mutation is explicit when the user invokes bin/flowdeck.js., No direct credential-file harvesting or arbitrary data exfiltration was found. ## Public findings ### 1.
