## Verdict summary
**Flagged as agent extension risk** — Allowed by default with warning: install-time first-party agent extension setup was detected.

- **Verdict:** Suspicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Warn
- **Firewall policy:** Warn-only agent extension risk
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Agent extension lifecycle risk
- **Selected version:** 0.14.5
- **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: suspicious; recommendation: downgrade to warn. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

No install-time execution, credential harvesting, command-output exfiltration, or remote payload chain was confirmed. The automatic post-login user-scope MCP registration warrants a warning under the extension lifecycle policy.

## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** A successful \`hookmyapp login\` can modify the user's Claude Code MCP configuration if Claude is installed. It registers the package's named MCP server with token-derived request headers.

- **Trigger:** Successful CLI login with the \`claude\` executable available.

- **Impact:** Adds a persistent authenticated HookMyApp tool endpoint to Claude Code without a separate setup command.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, bin/hookmyapp.js, dist/cli.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-07-28T07:51:30.100Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** Automatic first-party Claude MCP registration via \`claude mcp add-json --scope user\`.

- **Rationale:** No install-time execution, credential harvesting, command-output exfiltration, or remote payload chain was confirmed. The automatic post-login user-scope MCP registration warrants a warning under the extension lifecycle policy.

- **Files touched:** bin/hookmyapp.js, dist/cli.js

- **Network endpoints:** https://api.hookmyapp.com/mcp

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 93.0%

- **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for warning:** dist/cli.js auto-installs a user-scope Claude MCP entry after successful login when \`claude\` is present., The entry points to the HookMyApp MCP endpoint and uses a helper that prints the current bearer token.

- **Evidence against:** package.json has no install lifecycle hook; only prepublishOnly is declared., The MCP setup is first-party, named \`hookmyapp\`, and also available as an explicit \`mcp install --agent claude\` command., Child-process use is bounded to Claude MCP management and \`doctor\` version checks; no shell payload execution found.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to @gethookmyapp/cli@0.14.5.

- Review the evidence and your use of @gethookmyapp/cli@0.14.5 before allowing it. Restrict the permissions described in this report.
- Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe.
