## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 16 low-signal pattern(s) reviewed.

- **Verdict:** Manual Review
- **Product-default install policy:** Allow
- **Firewall policy:** No policy match
- **Public report status:** Under Review
- **Threat category:** Unknown
- **Selected version:** 0.0.96
- **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: manual review; recommendation: manual review. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The manifest has no install lifecycle hooks, and the flagged audit script is an explicit performance audit. The CLI implementation is unreadable as source, leaving a material runtime behavior gap; the evidence does not establish an attack or support a clean verdict.

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 confirmed in the readable source. The CLI implementation remains unresolved because it could not be inspected as text.

- **Trigger:** Running the polaris CLI entrypoint.

- **Impact:** The CLI’s behavior and any resulting impact remain unknown.

- **Evidence paths:** bin/polaris, src/cli/cli.ts

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-19T22:43:03.216Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The readable wrapper launches src/cli/cli.ts, whose contents could not be reviewed.

- **Rationale:** The manifest has no install lifecycle hooks, and the flagged audit script is an explicit performance audit. The CLI implementation is unreadable as source, leaving a material runtime behavior gap; the evidence does not establish an attack or support a clean verdict.

- **Files touched:** package.json, bin/polaris, src/cli/cli.ts, scripts/perf-audit.ts, src/slack/bridge.ts

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Manual Review

- **Confidence:** 69.0%

- **Recommended action:** manual\_review

- **Intent class:** Unknown

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **AI review observations:** package.json exposes a CLI at bin/polaris, which the wrapper directs to src/cli/cli.ts., The wrapper runs the CLI implementation, but src/cli/cli.ts is a binary/non-UTF-8 file and could not be reviewed as source., The flagged performance audit uses a supplied URL or the package’s own app URL and is not an install hook.

- **Evidence against:** package.json declares no preinstall, install, or postinstall hook., Readable Slack bridge code routes project events through an org’s Slack integration.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to @lightupai/polaris@0.0.96.

- Review the evidence and your use of @lightupai/polaris@0.0.96 before allowing it. Restrict the permissions described in this report.
- Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe.
