## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 15 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:** 0.4.9
- **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 process and network behavior is consistent with a LimAI client: credentials are read from LimAI-specific configuration and used for requests to its configured service. Package installation is behind an explicit update command, and no install-time data collection or unrelated credential destination was identified.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 91.0%
- **Started:** 2026-11-01T03:11:20.309Z

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 package provides a LimAI CLI and SDK.

- **Trigger:** API requests occur when users call SDK or CLI operations; the update check and package install occur when a user invokes \`limai update\`.

- **Impact:** No malicious impact was identified in the reviewed flows.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-11-01T03:11:50.482Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The SDK reads LimAI-specific credentials and sends them to the configured LimAI API. The updater checks the npm registry and installs the package when explicitly run.

- **Rationale:** The flagged process and network behavior is consistent with a LimAI client: credentials are read from LimAI-specific configuration and used for requests to its configured service. Package installation is behind an explicit update command, and no install-time data collection or unrelated credential destination was identified.

- **Files touched:** ~/.limai/config.json, User-selected download output paths

- **Network endpoints:** Configured LimAI API and SSE hosts, app.limai.io, registry.npmjs.org

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 91.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The manifest describes a LimAI data extraction CLI and SDK, with a library entry point and a separate CLI executable., The SDK reads its LimAI token and API URL from LimAI-specific environment variables or its local configuration., The SDK uses the token as a bearer credential for requests to its configured API., The package update check and npm install run only when the user invokes the \`update\` command.

- **Evidence against:** The manifest has only a prepublishOnly build script, not an install-time hook., The reviewed credential flow does not show LimAI credentials being sent to an unrelated host.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to @limai.io/cli@0.4.9.

- Review the evidence and your use of @limai.io/cli@0.4.9 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.
