AI Security Review

scanned 6d ago · by lpm-firewall-ai

LPM flags this version as an AI-agent control-surface risk. The npm postinstall lifecycle automatically modifies the consumer repository's instruction files for multiple AI agents. The installer supplies automatic approval without a separate user setup command.

Static reason

High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.; source matched previously finalized malicious package; routed for review

Trigger

A local project installation that passes the installer checks and lacks .ai-agent-kit/installation.json.

Impact

Package-supplied instructions become part of the consumer project's broad AI-agent control surface without explicit setup consent.

Mechanism

Postinstall calls the CLI bootstrap command with --non-interactive and --yes; bootstrap selects all adapters and persists managed agent instructions.

Policy narrative

Installing the package in an eligible consumer project activates postinstall. The hook supplies noninteractive automatic approval to bootstrap, which defaults to every agent adapter and writes managed instructions into multiple agent instruction files. Existing activation checks and file safeguards limit execution and overwrites, but do not obtain consent for this install-time control-surface mutation.

AI rationale

Inspected source establishes unconsented npm postinstall mutation of a broad AI-agent control surface, which meets the blocking policy. The decision rests on the executable installation chain, not scanner similarity labels.
