FlyDocs AI CLI — install, setup, and manage FlyDocs projects
AI Security Review
scanned 3mo ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThis is a real first-party AI-agent extension lifecycle surface, but source shows explicit user triggering, no npm lifecycle mutation, and consent-gated reporting rather than a concrete malicious chain.
Static reason
One or more suspicious static signals were detected.
Trigger
User runs flydocs init/update and then uses the configured AI-agent project.
Impact
Can alter the project AI-agent workflow and access local provider credentials for provider usage-status requests.
Mechanism
Project-local agent extension installation with consent-gated usage collection.
AI rationale
This is a real first-party AI-agent extension lifecycle surface, but source shows explicit user triggering, no npm lifecycle mutation, and consent-gated reporting rather than a concrete malicious chain.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Suspicious at 88.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for warning
- User-invoked init/update writes bundled Claude/Cursor hooks and settings.
- template/.claude/hooks/usage-capture.py starts detached usage reporting on agent Stop.
- dist/cli.js reads local Claude/Cursor auth state for plan/usage queries.
- Template hook post-edit.py may invoke npx prettier on edited projects.
Evidence against
- package.json has no preinstall/install/postinstall lifecycle hook.
- Agent configuration is installed only through explicit CLI commands.
- Usage reporting denies by default without credentials, workspace consent, and opt-out checks.
- Observed endpoints are FlyDocs telemetry/relay and provider usage APIs; no arbitrary payload URL.
