## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 20 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:** 0.33.0
- **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.

The postinstall telemetry is guarded by recorded affirmative consent and opt-out checks, and sends limited package-aligned adoption data. The scanner’s execution and network indicators correspond to the CLI’s documented functions; the inspected source did not establish malicious behavior.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 91.0%
- **Started:** 2026-10-25T10:47:32.842Z

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 in the inspected source. The install hook sends limited adoption telemetry only after recorded telemetry consent.

- **Trigger:** Package installation, when the package is under node\_modules and the existing user config has telemetry set to true.

- **Impact:** An opted-in user’s installation and coarse runtime details are reported for adoption measurement; no confirmed attack impact was found.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-25T10:48:19.229Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The postinstall script posts an anonymous installation event with package version and coarse runtime metadata to the configured PostHog host, which defaults to the Extenshi collector.

- **Rationale:** The postinstall telemetry is guarded by recorded affirmative consent and opt-out checks, and sends limited package-aligned adoption data. The scanner’s execution and network indicators correspond to the CLI’s documented functions; the inspected source did not establish malicious behavior.

- **Files touched:** scripts/postinstall.cjs, package.json

- **Network endpoints:** https://eu.i.posthog.com

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 91.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** package.json runs scripts/postinstall.cjs during installation, and the script sends an installation event only when the existing config explicitly has telemetry set to true; it also honors opt-out variables and skips CI and workspace installs., The install event goes to the Extenshi PostHog collector and contains an anonymous install ID plus package and runtime metadata; no credentials or package contents are included in the request., The inspected runtime and dependency entrypoints support the stated CLI, browser testing, publishing, and rendering functions; no concrete attack behavior was identified.
