## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 12 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:** 0.23.9
- **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: clean; recommendation: mark clean. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The inspected manifest and entrypoint behavior support a clean verdict: no install-time hook or concrete attack behavior was found. Scanner signals are consistent with package-aligned update and statistics features and user-invoked local TUI actions.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 91.0%
- **Started:** 2026-10-09T04:54:00.518Z

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 package entrypoints. The observed registry check and git invocation are tied to ordinary CLI features.

- **Trigger:** Interactive REPL startup for the update check; explicit /diff input for the git commands.

- **Impact:** No confirmed malicious effect or attack surface was established.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-09T04:54:19.175Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The manifest declares no install lifecycle script. The CLI loads its update checker from the REPL, and the TUI uses git to display the current worktree diff.

- **Rationale:** The inspected manifest and entrypoint behavior support a clean verdict: no install-time hook or concrete attack behavior was found. Scanner signals are consistent with package-aligned update and statistics features and user-invoked local TUI actions.

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 91.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** package.json has only a build script and depends on matching @hmharness packages; no install lifecycle hook is declared., The CLI update check is loaded from an interactive REPL path and uses the npm registry for version lookup., The TUI invokes git only for the user-entered /diff command, scoped to the current working directory.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to @hmharness/cli@0.23.9.

- Review the evidence and your use of @hmharness/cli@0.23.9 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 findings

### 1. Low: Scripts Present
- **Category:** Manifest
- **Confidence:** 100.0%

Package declares npm scripts.

### 2. Medium: Network
- **Category:** Source
- **Confidence:** 75.0%

Package source references network APIs.

### 3. Medium: Environment Vars
- **Category:** Source
- **Confidence:** 75.0%

Package source references environment variables.

### 4. Low: Filesystem
- **Category:** Source
- **Confidence:** 70.0%

Package source references filesystem APIs.

### 5. High: Copied Package Dependency Bridge
- **Category:** Source
- **Confidence:** 83.0%
- **Path:** dist/main.js
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@hmharness/cli@0.23.9/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`;
```

### 6. Low: High Entropy Strings
- **Category:** Supply Chain
- **Confidence:** 55.0%

Package source contains high-entropy string patterns.

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

Package source contains URL literals.

### 8. 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.

### 9. High: Previous Version Dangerous Delta
- **Category:** Supply Chain
- **Confidence:** 93.0%
- **Path:** dist/tui.js
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@hmharness/cli@0.23.9/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@0.15.0
matchedIdentity = npm:QGhtaGFybmVzcy9jbGk:0.15.0
similarity = 0.500
summary = stored previous version shares package body but lacks this dangerous source file
```

### 10. Low: Suspicious Lifecycle Evidence
- **Category:** Manifest
- **Confidence:** 91.0%
- **Path:** package.json
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@hmharness/cli@0.23.9/package.json>)

package.json has only a build script and depends on matching @hmharness packages; no install lifecycle hook is declared.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```json
"scripts": {
    "build": "tsc -p tsconfig.build.json"
  },
  "dependencies": {
    "@hmharness/agent": "0.23.9",
    "@hmharness/cognitive": "0.23.9",

### 11. Low: Ai Review Evidence

- **Confidence:** 91.0%
- **Path:** dist/main.js
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@hmharness/cli@0.23.9/dist/main.js>)

The CLI update check is loaded from an interactive REPL path and uses the npm registry for version lookup.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```javascript
// npm is pull-based; the update reminder is a cached (1/day) registry
    // check printed when resolved - never blocks, never nags offline
    const { notifyUpdate } = await import("./update-check.js");
    const { createRequire } = await import('node:module');
    const CURRENT_VERSION = createRequire(import.meta.url)('..
```

### 12. Low: Ai Review Evidence
- **Category:** Ai Review
- **Confidence:** 91.0%
- **Path:** dist/tui.js
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@hmharness/cli@0.23.9/dist/tui.js>)

The TUI invokes git only for the user-entered /diff command, scoped to the current working directory.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```javascript
if (line === '/diff') {
            // M4 B7: pager-view the worktree git diff (incl. untracked) via the
            // B5 overlay base
            rt.setBusy(true, '/diff');
            try {
                const { execFile } = await import('node:child_process');
                const { promisify } = await import('node:util');
                const run = promisify(execFile);
                const g = (a, mb) => run('git', a, { cwd: process.cwd(), windowsHide: true,
