A package installation can automatically influence prompt routing and session hooks for AI coding tools in the consumer project. - **Verdict:** AI-agent control-surface policy finding - **Product-default install policy:** Warn by default; block when configured - **Firewall policy:** Warn by default - **Public report status:** Published - **Threat category:** Soft block: AI-agent control surface - **Selected version:** 4.1.1 - **Selected version is latest:** Yes - **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai) This finding concerns changes to an AI agent's instructions or configuration without explicit user action. It does not by itself establish malware intent. The CLI warns by default and blocks when configured for this policy. AI assessment: malicious; recommendation: publish block. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. LPM flags this version as an AI-agent control-surface risk. An npm post-install hook changes AI-agent discovery and Copilot control files in the consumer project without an interactive consent step. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 96.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-29T04:51:36.158Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-29T04:52:31.223Z - **Download time:** 514 ms - **Static scan time:** 984 ms - **AI review time:** 53565 ms - **Total time:** 55065 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:** An npm post-install hook changes AI-agent discovery and Copilot control files in the consumer project without an interactive consent step. - **Trigger:** Installing the package through npm triggers postinstall. - **Impact:** A package installation can automatically influence prompt routing and session hooks for AI coding tools in the consumer project. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/postinstall.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-29T04:52:31.223Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The hook copies agent content into .claude and .agents, then bootstraps Copilot instructions and native hook configuration pointing to package-owned scripts. - **Attack narrative:** The declared post-install lifecycle hook runs automatically during dependency installation. It places package-controlled content in agent discovery directories and writes Copilot instruction and hook configuration without prompting the user. This mutates broad AI-agent control surfaces as part of installation and routes future agent activity through package-owned scripts. - **Rationale:** The package performs unconsented post-install mutation of multiple consumer AI-agent control surfaces. This meets the blocking policy for lifecycle-based control-surface modification. - **Files touched:** .claude, .agents, .github/copilot-instructions.md, .github/hooks/jenga.json ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 96.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for policy risk:** The package declares an automatic post-install script., That script mirrors package skills and agents into both Claude and generic agent discovery directories., During unattended installation it creates Copilot instruction and hook configuration that invokes package-owned paths. - **Evidence against:** No credential collection or network exfiltration was identified in the inspected lifecycle code. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @jenga-ai/agent@4.1.1. - Avoid installing @jenga-ai/agent@4.1.1. Remove it from direct dependencies and check your lockfile for transitive copies. - Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe. - If this version ran, investigate the affected machine and build environment. Rotate credentials it could access and rebuild from a trusted environment. ## Public findings ### 1.
