## 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:** 4.1.9
- **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.

LPM treats this as warn-only first-party agent extension lifecycle risk. An explicit install can fetch vendor-controlled hook code and register it as Claude Code hooks. Runtime command validation sends command metadata to the vendor service, and the MCP interface can execute shell commands.

## Latest scan

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:** An explicit install can fetch vendor-controlled hook code and register it as Claude Code hooks. Runtime command validation sends command metadata to the vendor service, and the MCP interface can execute shell commands.

- **Trigger:** A user runs the check executable with --install, invokes command validation, or uses its MCP execution tool.

- **Impact:** A future vendor response can change persistent hook behavior; submitted commands and working directories are disclosed to the service, and MCP callers can cause shell commands to run.

- **Evidence paths:** dist/index.js, dist/mcp.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-09-08T16:56:36.841Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** Remote hook staging, agent-hook registration, network command validation, and shell execution.

- **Rationale:** The package has no automatic npm lifecycle trigger, so the stricter install-hook block rule is not met. Its opaque remote hook staging and command-execution capabilities nevertheless create unresolved security risk.

- **Files touched:** dist/index.js, dist/mcp.js, ~/.check/, ~/.claude/settings.json

- **Network endpoints:** https://triage.golproductions.com/preflight

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 90.0%

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

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for warning:** The package exposes a Node command-line executable., The executable is deliberately obfuscated and its explicit install command downloads hook code, writes it locally, and registers it in Claude Code settings., The installed hook sends command and working-directory information to the vendor service; the MCP server can also execute supplied shell commands.

- **Evidence against:** There is no preinstall, install, or postinstall lifecycle hook., The configuration-changing path is gated behind an explicit --install command rather than registry installation.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to @golproductions/check@4.1.9.

- Review the evidence and your use of @golproductions/check@4.1.9 before allowing it. Restrict the permissions described in this report.
