## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 19 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:** 0.26.0
- **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.

Source inspection found no malicious behavior. The install-time telemetry requires positive recorded consent, and the flagged runtime operations are tied to explicit CLI features or local smoke-test observation.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 98.0%
- **Started:** 2026-10-15T17:52:54.680Z

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. The inspected install and runtime behaviors are guarded telemetry or user-invoked product functions.

- **Trigger:** Installation runs the postinstall hook; CLI features run when the user invokes their commands.

- **Impact:** No unconsented credential disclosure, destructive action, or hidden execution was established.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-15T17:54:24.365Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The hook sends limited telemetry only when prior consent is recorded and opt-out conditions permit it. Authenticated API calls use the configured service endpoint, while process execution supports browser login or explicit rebuild verification.

- **Rationale:** Source inspection found no malicious behavior. The install-time telemetry requires positive recorded consent, and the flagged runtime operations are tied to explicit CLI features or local smoke-test observation.

- **Files touched:** scripts/postinstall.cjs, dist/pay.js, dist/pay-test-cycle.js, dist/cli.js, dist/smoke.js, dist/login-runtime.js, dist/amo-source.js, dist/project.js

- **Network endpoints:** eu.i.posthog.com, bff.extenshi.io, 127.0.0.1

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 98.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The install hook is gated on a real dependency install, positive recorded telemetry consent, and environment opt-outs; it sends an install event with coarse platform and version data., Payment commands send the configured service key to the configured service endpoint; callers invoke them through explicit commands, and mutations require an apply flag., The reported browser runtime operations collect extension errors for local smoke-test observations., Process launching is used to open a browser during login, while rebuild commands run only through the explicit clean-room verification option., The project client sends authenticated requests to the configured Extenshi backend.
