CLI for managing project roadmaps, phases, and tasks

AI Security Review

scanned 4h ago · by lpm-firewall-ai

No confirmed malicious attack surface is established by the inspected package source. The install hook is a conventional package-aligned native binary downloader, and agent-control-surface changes are documented user-invoked CLI behavior rather than lifecycle delivery.

Static reason
One or more suspicious static signals were detected.; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source
Trigger
npm postinstall downloads binary; rdm bin runs installed CLI when invoked
Impact
Installs and runs the rdm CLI; no source evidence of unconsented persistence, exfiltration, or foreign AI-agent control mutation
Mechanism
package-aligned binary download and CLI wrapper
Rationale
The suspicious primitives are consistent with an npm wrapper for a native CLI: postinstall fetches the matching release artifact from the package's own GitHub release URL and installs it locally. No install-time foreign agent configuration writes, credential collection, destructive behavior, or unexplained network endpoints were found in source.
Evidence

Decision evidence

public snapshot
AI called this Clean at 86.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for block
  • package.json postinstall runs install.js
  • binary-install.js downloads a platform tarball and extracts it with tar/unzip/powershell
  • run-rdm.js executes the installed rdm binary on explicit CLI use
Evidence against
  • Download URL is package-aligned: GitHub releases for edpaget/rdm v0.16.0
  • Lifecycle writes only into package-local node_modules/.bin_real plus OS temp download path
  • No credential harvesting or exfiltration logic found
  • Proxy env vars are only used for conventional download proxy support
  • Agent config and hook writes described in README are user-invoked rdm commands, not install-time mutations
