## 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:** 2.2.1
- **Selected version is latest:** No
- **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai)

LPM treats this as warn-only first-party agent extension lifecycle risk. Postinstall automatically installs this package's Claude skill files into a global or project Claude skills directory. It also alters the installing project's \`.gitignore\`; no exfiltration or remote payload execution was found.

## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** Postinstall automatically installs this package's Claude skill files into a global or project Claude skills directory. It also alters the installing project's \`.gitignore\`; no exfiltration or remote payload execution was found.

- **Trigger:** npm postinstall

- **Impact:** Adds package-provided agent capabilities without an explicit setup command.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, bin/install.js, skills/shared/config.json, lib/workflows/\_shared/

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-07-21T00:41:29.035Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** copies first-party Claude skills and workflow files into \`.claude/skills\`

- **Rationale:** The lifecycle mutation is a real agent-extension risk and warrants a warning under policy, but it does not meet the block threshold for malicious control-surface hijacking. Scanner claims of reviewer manipulation and dangerous dynamic loading were not substantiated by source.

- **Files touched:** ~/.claude/skills/, \<project\>/.claude/skills/, \<project\>/.gitignore

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 95.0%

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

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for:** package.json runs \`node bin/install.js\` at postinstall., bin/install.js copies package skills into \`.claude/skills\` globally or in the installing project., Installer appends \`.claude-scrum-skill\` to the project \`.gitignore\`.

- **Evidence against:** bin/install.js has no network, child-process, credential-harvesting, eval, or shell execution., Dynamic import is limited to copied local \`\_workflows/\_shared/\*.mjs\` smoke-check modules., Remote Jira/Trello commands are documented user-invoked skill instructions, not install-time code., No reviewer/scanner-directed instruction override was found in README.md.

## Public findings

### 1. High: Install Time Lifecycle Scripts
- **Category:** Manifest
- **Confidence:** 90.0%
- **Path:** package.json
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@houseofwolvesllc/claude-scrum-skill@2.2.1/package.json>)

Package defines install-time lifecycle scripts.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```json
scripts.postinstall = node bin/install.js
```

### 2. Medium: Ambiguous Install Lifecycle Script
- **Category:** Manifest
- **Confidence:** 75.0%
- **Path:** package.json
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@houseofwolvesllc/claude-scrum-skill@2.2.1/package.json>)

Install-time lifecycle script is not statically allowlisted and needs review.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```json
scripts.postinstall = node bin/install.js
```

### 3. High: Ai Reviewer Manipulation
- **Category:** Social Engineering
- **Confidence:** 80.0%
- **Path:** README.md
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@houseofwolvesllc/claude-scrum-skill@2.2.1/README.md>)

Package text addresses the security reviewer or scanner and tries to influence the review outcome.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```markdown
- **`--skip-on-pause`** (default off) — when a spec's orchestration pauses on a safety gate, mark it skipped and advance to the next spec instead of pausing the queue. Use with caution; safety gates exist for a reason.
```

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

Package declares npm scripts.

### 5. Medium: Dynamic Require
- **Category:** Source
- **Confidence:** 75.0%
- **Path:** bin/install.js
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@houseofwolvesllc/claude-scrum-skill@2.2.1/bin/install.js>)

Package source references dynamic require/import behavior.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```javascript
L2: 
L3: const fs = require('fs');
L4: const path = require('path');
```

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

Package source references environment variables.

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

Package source references filesystem APIs.

### 8. Critical: Ai Agent Control Hijack
- **Category:** Source
- **Confidence:** 90.0%
- **Path:** bin/install.js
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@houseofwolvesllc/claude-scrum-skill@2.2.1/bin/install.js>)

Source creates an unconsented AI-agent control surface through install-time mutation or a default unauthenticated remote skill channel.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```javascript
Install-time AI-agent control hijack evidence:
L26: const skillsDir = resolveSkillsDir();
L27: const location = IS_GLOBAL ? 'global (~/.claude/skills/)' : `project (${skillsDir})`;
L28: console.log(`\n📋 Installing claude-scrum-skill (${location})...\n`);
L29: 
L30: fs.mkdirSync(skillsDir, { recursive: true });
L31: 
...
L48: if (IS_GLOBAL) {
L49: return path.join(HOME, '.claude', 'skills');
L50: }
...
L60: }
L61: return path.join(projectRoot, '.claude', 'skills');
L62: }
Payload evidence from lib/guidance/domain-modeling/SKILL.md:
L1: ---
L2: name: domain-modeling
```

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

Package source contains high-entropy string patterns.

### 10. Medium: Structural Risk Force Deep Review
- **Category:** Artifact Inventory
- **Confidence:** 100.0%

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