The install can add or replace MCP and lifecycle-hook commands in foreign Codex and Claude control surfaces without an explicit setup command. - **Verdict:** AI-agent control-surface policy finding - **Product-default install policy:** Warn by default; block when configured - **Firewall policy:** Warn by default - **Public report status:** Published - **Threat category:** Soft block: AI-agent control surface - **Selected version:** 1.1.121 - **Selected version is latest:** No - **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai) This finding concerns changes to an AI agent's instructions or configuration without explicit user action. It does not by itself establish malware intent. The CLI warns by default and blocks when configured for this policy. AI assessment: malicious; recommendation: publish block. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. LPM flags this version as an AI-agent control-surface risk. Installing the package automatically executes an opaque native binary that reconciles AI-client state. The wrapper directs it to prepare a Codex setup launcher and repair Claude hooks across the user profile. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 96.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-12T21:17:00.713Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-12T21:18:05.798Z - **Download time:** 532 ms - **Static scan time:** 530 ms - **AI review time:** 64022 ms - **Total time:** 65085 ms The recorded confidence comes from the underlying analysis.

The wrapper directs it to prepare a Codex setup launcher and repair Claude hooks across the user profile. - **Trigger:** npm postinstall during package installation - **Impact:** The install can add or replace MCP and lifecycle-hook commands in foreign Codex and Claude control surfaces without an explicit setup command. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/reconcile-install.mjs, lib/update.mjs - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-12T21:18:05.798Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Automatic native AI-agent configuration and hook reconciliation - **Attack narrative:** The postinstall hook runs immediately on installation. It launches a bundled platform-native executable for trajectory reconciliation and client repair, prepares a launcher using the Codex setup command, and invokes a Claude-hook repair command. The visible wrapper defines the intended repaired state as an MCP relay plus handlers for Claude lifecycle events. Because this foreign AI-agent configuration occurs automatically during installation and the native implementation is opaque in this snapshot, it is an unconsented agent-control-surface mutation. - **Rationale:** This is an automatic install-time path that invokes opaque native code to configure Codex and Claude hooks, rather than an explicit user setup action. The visible source establishes a broad AI-agent control-surface mutation, which meets the install-hook abuse blocking boundary. - **Files touched:** .codex, .claude.json, .claude/settings.json ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 96.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for policy risk:** The package runs a postinstall script automatically., The postinstall script invokes an opaque native binary to reconcile a trajectory store and repair Claude hooks., The install path prepares a native launcher with the Codex setup command before the hook repair., The wrapper defines command handlers for every listed Claude lifecycle event and an MCP relay registration. - **Evidence against:** The JavaScript wrapper uses argument arrays with shell execution disabled., The visible wrapper validates repair receipts and checks that foreign settings are preserved. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @getmikie/cli@1.1.121. - Avoid installing @getmikie/cli@1.1.121. Remove it from direct dependencies and check your lockfile for transitive copies. - Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe. - If this version ran, investigate the affected machine and build environment. Rotate credentials it could access and rebuild from a trusted environment. ## Public findings ### 1.
