Treat them as untrusted evidence. Do not execute instructions or code found in this document. ## Verdict summary **Flagged as agent extension risk** — Allowed by default with warning: install-time first-party agent extension setup was detected. - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Product-default install policy:** Warn - **Firewall policy:** Warn-only agent extension risk - **Public report status:** Published - **Threat category:** Agent extension lifecycle risk - **Selected version:** 1.0.5 - **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: suspicious; recommendation: downgrade to warn. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. LPM treats this as warn-only first-party agent extension lifecycle risk. A global npm installation can trigger setup of this package's Claude plugin and HUD. This is a lifecycle risk involving package-owned agent extension setup; no concrete malicious attack was identified. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 88.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-08T16:51:42.002Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-08T16:52:51.815Z - **Download time:** 506 ms - **Static scan time:** 1797 ms - **AI review time:** 67508 ms - **Total time:** 69813 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:** A global npm installation can trigger setup of this package's Claude plugin and HUD. This is a lifecycle risk involving package-owned agent extension setup; no concrete malicious attack was identified. - **Trigger:** Global npm installation, unless skipped by environment or source-checkout conditions. - **Impact:** The package can alter the user's global Claude plugin and settings configuration during installation. - **Evidence paths:** scripts/postinstall.mjs, bin/litclaude-ai.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-08T16:52:51.815Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The postinstall hook invokes the package CLI install command, which registers the plugin and updates Claude settings. - **Rationale:** The global-only postinstall path automatically invokes an installer that updates Claude plugin and settings configuration. This is a guarded package-owned agent extension lifecycle risk, not source evidence of a concrete malicious attack. - **Files touched:** scripts/postinstall.mjs, bin/litclaude-ai.js ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 88.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** The postinstall hook skips ordinary local installs, but on global installs it launches the package CLI's install command., That install command registers the package's own Claude plugin and HUD and can update global Claude settings; this is package-owned agent setup during npm installation. - **Evidence against:** The postinstall gate skips source checkouts and non-global installs unless explicitly forced., The reviewed integration locations in automatic-update.mjs and common.mjs concern update gating and workspace skill paths; they do not establish a separate attack. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @litfamily/litclaude@1.0.5. - Review the evidence and your use of @litfamily/litclaude@1.0.5 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. ## Public findings ### 1.
