## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 17 low-signal pattern(s) reviewed.

- **Verdict:** Clean
- **Product-default install policy:** Allow
- **Firewall policy:** No policy match
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** None published
- **Selected version:** 0.0.158
- **Selected version is latest:** No
- **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai)

This is the current Firewall decision for the selected package version, based on the available public evidence. Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions.

AI assessment: clean; recommendation: mark clean. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The flagged credential flow uses an application-configured Slack bot token to send signup notifications to Slack, and the hooks capture sessions as the package describes. There are no npm lifecycle hooks, and setup behavior is invoked by the user through the CLI.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 94.0%

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:** No attack was identified. The reviewed network and file behavior supports the package’s session-recording, Slack-notification, and setup features.

- **Trigger:** Session hooks run when installed and invoked by Claude Code; setup runs when the user invokes \`polaris install\`; signup notifications run in the web app when signup events occur.

- **Impact:** These actions match the package’s described purpose; no malicious credential forwarding or unrelated automatic execution was identified.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-11-02T08:10:16.313Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** Hooks forward session events to the local daemon. The web app uses its configured Slack bot token to post signup notifications to Slack. The CLI checks the npm registry for updates.

- **Rationale:** The flagged credential flow uses an application-configured Slack bot token to send signup notifications to Slack, and the hooks capture sessions as the package describes. There are no npm lifecycle hooks, and setup behavior is invoked by the user through the CLI.

- **Files touched:** src/web/app.ts, src/cli/cli.ts, hooks/capture-prompt.ts, hooks/capture-stop.ts

- **Network endpoints:** slack.com, registry.npmjs.org, 127.0.0.1:4322

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 94.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The package describes recording Claude Code prompts, responses, and tool calls and streaming sessions to Slack., The manifest has no install, preinstall, or postinstall hook; its only npm script is \`test\`., Signup notifications require the configured \`SIGNUP\_SLACK\_BOT\_TOKEN\` and post to Slack’s API., The capture hook sends events to the local Polaris daemon; transcript capture is part of the package’s stated session-recording purpose., Writing Claude Code hooks and registering the daemon happens in the explicit \`polaris install\` command., The flagged \`curl | bash\` text is printed as a Bun installation suggestion; it is not executed by the CLI.
