## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 17 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:** 0.14.22
- **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 CLI’s MCP credential flow targets its configured HookMyApp API, and no forwarding of unrelated credentials or other concrete attack behavior was found. The package has no install hook; its telemetry is disclosed with a disable setting.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 90.0%
- **Started:** 2026-11-02T12:00:11.246Z
- **Finished:** 2026-11-02T12:01:16.976Z
- **Download time:** 776 ms
- **Static scan time:** 5007 ms
- **AI review time:** 59947 ms
- **Total time:** 65730 ms

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 identified. The CLI provides HookMyApp authentication, MCP agent setup, and disclosed telemetry.

- **Trigger:** CLI commands; agent setup can also run after login.

- **Impact:** Routine service authentication and agent configuration; telemetry can be disabled.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-11-02T12:01:16.976Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The reviewed flow uses HookMyApp credentials with the configured HookMyApp MCP endpoint. Agent configuration and skills are part of the CLI’s setup behavior.

- **Rationale:** The CLI’s MCP credential flow targets its configured HookMyApp API, and no forwarding of unrelated credentials or other concrete attack behavior was found. The package has no install hook; its telemetry is disclosed with a disable setting.

- **Files touched:** ~/.codex/config.toml, ~/.cursor/mcp.json, ~/.config/hookmyapp/credentials.json, ~/.config/hookmyapp/mcp-credential.json

- **Network endpoints:** api.hookmyapp.com, us.i.posthog.com

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 90.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The manifest has no install hook; prepublishOnly only builds and runs unit tests., The MCP URL is derived from the configured HookMyApp API URL and uses its /mcp endpoint., MCP authentication reads the package’s saved credentials for the HookMyApp agent service; Codex setup configures that MCP endpoint., Telemetry is disclosed, says command arguments and file contents are not sent, and offers a disable setting.

- **Evidence against:** The scanner flags credential redirection and exfiltration, but the reviewed credential flow configures the package’s own MCP service; no unrelated credential forwarding was identified., The CLI can write agent configuration and install HookMyApp skills, but this is part of its agent setup flow.

## Affected versions and remediation
