@inkeep/open-knowledge@0.60.0

Local-first, agent-friendly Markdown knowledge base with a cross-platform CLI and web editor

AI Security Review

scanned 1mo ago · by lpm-firewall-ai

The source supports a limited, user-invoked AI-agent configuration mutation capability, not malware or automatic persistence. Downgrade to a warning because the operation affects multiple agent control surfaces.

Static reason

High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.; source matched previously finalized malicious package; routed for review; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source

Trigger

A user runs the open-knowledge uninstall command, including its confirmation or --yes path.

Impact

It can alter AI-agent configuration surfaces by deleting this package's managed entries and skills.

Mechanism

User-invoked removal of agent/editor MCP configuration and skill files.

AI rationale

Evidence

dist/cli.mjsdist/index.mjs.claude/skills/open-knowledge/.cursor/skills/open-knowledge/.codex/skills/open-knowledge/.github/skills/open-knowledge/.opencode/skills/open-knowledge/.pi/skills/open-knowledge/

Decision evidence

public snapshot

AI called this Suspicious at 83.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with medium false-positive risk.

Evidence for warning

The executable exposes an uninstall command that removes editor MCP configuration and skill bundles when invoked.
The bundled code defines managed skill locations under Claude, Cursor, Codex, Copilot, OpenCode, Pi, and Antigravity directories.
The bundled MCP configuration registry includes a global Claude configuration with an mcpServers entry.

Evidence against

package.json defines no preinstall, install, postinstall, or prepare lifecycle hook.
The configuration removal is an explicit uninstall CLI action, not automatic installation behavior.
No concrete credential-export or unrelated network-send path was established in the inspected entrypoints.
