## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 13 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:** 0.23.41
- **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 manifest has no lifecycle hook, and the inspected dependency manifests contain only build scripts. The flagged installer is a separate board setup utility, and the daemon probe targets loopback; these inspected behaviors do not establish a package-triggered attack.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 82.0%
- **Started:** 2026-10-29T07:47:39.314Z
- **Finished:** 2026-10-29T07:48:30.502Z
- **Download time:** 1016 ms
- **Static scan time:** 947 ms
- **AI review time:** 49224 ms
- **Total time:** 51188 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 was identified in the inspected source. The board installer and web daemon provide installation and persistence features, but the inspected package does not activate them through an install hook.

- **Trigger:** The CLI runs when invoked; the board installer requires a separate Node command.

- **Impact:** No unsolicited data transfer or package-triggered system mutation was established.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-29T07:48:30.502Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The daemon checks a local web endpoint, while the board script installs launchers and package files when explicitly run.

- **Rationale:** The manifest has no lifecycle hook, and the inspected dependency manifests contain only build scripts. The flagged installer is a separate board setup utility, and the daemon probe targets loopback; these inspected behaviors do not establish a package-triggered attack.

- **Files touched:** board/install-kaihongos.cjs, dist/main.js, dist/tui.js, dist/web-daemon.js

- **Network endpoints:** http://127.0.0.1:${port}/api/state

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 82.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** package.json declares only a build script; the inspected dependency manifests also declare only build scripts., The CLI and TUI files are command-line frontends that import their runtime modules., The board installer is a separately invoked Node script; the manifest does not register it as an install hook., The web daemon probe contacts the local loopback address.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to @hmharness/cli@0.23.41.

- Review the evidence and your use of @hmharness/cli@0.23.41 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.

- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@hmharness/cli@0.23.41/board/install-kaihongos.cjs>)

A single source file combines environment access, network access, and code or shell execution; review context before blocking.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```javascript
L339: log('first run: creating config skeleton at ' + HMH_HOME);
L340: const r = spawnSync(nodeBin, [path.join(NM, '@hmharness', 'cli', 'dist', 'main.js'), 'init'], {
L341: encoding: 'utf8', env: Object.assign({}, process.env, { HMH_HOME, HOME: BOARD_HOME }),
L342: });
...
L349: console.log('  2. hmh check     # verify toolchain');

- **Confidence:** 83.0%
- **Path:** dist/main.js
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@hmharness/cli@0.23.41/dist/main.js>)

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

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```javascript
package = @hmharness/cli; repositoryIdentity = hmharness; dependency = @hmharness/agent
L33: import { harmonyTools } from '@hmharness/domain-harmony';
L34: import { baseTools, buildRegistry, buildSystemPrompt, runAgentTask, strings } from '@hmharness/agent';
L35: const DIM = (s) => `\x1b[2m${s}\x1b[0m`;
```

- **Confidence:** 55.0%

Package source contains high-entropy string patterns.

### 10. Low: Url Strings
- **Category:** Supply Chain
- **Confidence:** 65.0%

Package source contains URL literals.

### 11. Medium: Structural Risk Force Deep Review
- **Category:** Artifact Inventory
- **Confidence:** 80.0%

Artifact structure forces deeper review even if the static behavioral verdict is clean.

### 12. High: Semantic Analysis Limited
- **Category:** Scanner Coverage
- **Confidence:** 100.0%
- **Path:** dist/web-daemon.js\#virtual:normalized:round1
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@hmharness/cli@0.23.41/dist/web-daemon.js%23virtual%3Anormalized%3Around1>)

A bounded semantic-analysis stage reached its safety limit; remaining detectors completed, but this package requires AI review.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```text
stage = ast_semantic_analysis; reason = ast_parse_error; limitedFiles = 1
```

### 13. High: Previous Version Dangerous Delta
- **Category:** Supply Chain
- **Confidence:** 93.0%
- **Path:** dist/tui.js
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@hmharness/cli@0.23.41/dist/tui.js>)

This package version adds a dangerous source file absent from the previous stored version; route for source-aware review.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```javascript
matchType = previous_version_dangerous_delta
matchedPackage = @hmharness/cli@0.23.38
matchedIdentity = npm:QGhtaGFybmVzcy9jbGk:0.23.38
similarity = 0.900
