AI Security Review
scanned 27d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe manifest has no install lifecycle hook, and the reviewed runtime behavior is consistent with the CLI’s update reminder and local web frontend. The scanner’s structural and network hints did not establish a concrete attack surface.
Static reason
One or more suspicious static signals were detected.; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source
Trigger
The update reminder runs when the interactive CLI starts; the daemon starts when the user invokes the web frontend.
Impact
The inspected behavior supports package update notices and local web service operation; no concrete malicious effect was established.
Mechanism
The CLI checks the package’s npm dist-tag and can launch its own web daemon as a child process, recording the daemon version.
AI rationale
The manifest has no install lifecycle hook, and the reviewed runtime behavior is consistent with the CLI’s update reminder and local web frontend. The scanner’s structural and network hints did not establish a concrete attack surface.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Clean at 94.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for AI clean decision
- package.json has no install lifecycle hook and lists only a build script; its runtime dependencies are under the same vendor scope.
- dist/main.js imports the package’s CLI components and the local web-daemon helper.
- dist/web-daemon.js starts the CLI as a detached local web daemon and records its version for stale-daemon checks.
- dist/main.js calls the update reminder from the interactive frontend; dist/update-check.js checks the npm registry for this package’s version.

Copied Package Dependency Bridge
Package metadata claims a different repository identity while copied source loads a runtime dependency bridge.
