AI Security Review

scanned 9d ago · by lpm-firewall-ai

The install hook makes a persistent, unprompted change to global agent configuration by registering this package’s own server. This fits the warning policy for first-party agent extension setup; the inspected source does not establish a concrete malicious action.

Static reason

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

Trigger

Installing the package with npm.

Impact

Claude Code and Codex can load the package’s server in later use without a separate setup command.

Mechanism

The hook writes a branded server entry that launches this package’s local MCP server through stdio.

AI rationale

Evidence

package.jsonscripts/postinstall.js~/.claude.json~/.codex/config.toml

Decision evidence

public snapshot

AI called this Suspicious at 92.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with medium false-positive risk.

Evidence for warning

The manifest runs the postinstall script during npm installation, and that script proceeds without a consent prompt.
The hook adds a package-owned MCP server to the user’s global Claude and Codex configuration, launching this package’s local server through stdio.
The separate trash-hook installer requires an explicit install command and flag before changing Claude settings.
The init command asks for confirmation before installing slash-command files; the other inspected flagged paths show project hygiene, configuration checks, file watching, agent-config inspection, or legacy-block cleanup.
The registration code inspected here does not show a remote endpoint or a content-export setting.
