It targets both generic agent and Claude skill locations through a downloaded installer. - **Trigger:** npm postinstall during package installation - **Impact:** Mutates broad AI-agent instruction surfaces without an explicit user command. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/postinstall.mjs, lib/skills/builtin-skill.js, lib/skills/npx-skills-add.js, lib/skills/skill-presence.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-31T11:56:01.320Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** automatic global AI-agent skill installation through npx - **Attack narrative:** On installation, the postinstall launcher imports the bundled postinstall module. That module installs a built-in skill, which runs npx skills@latest add with global flags. The package then recognizes global skill locations under both .agents/skills and .claude/skills. This is an unconsented install-time mutation of broad AI-agent control surfaces, and obfuscation makes the shipped lifecycle behavior difficult to audit. - **Rationale:** The package performs an automatic postinstall global skill installation into broad AI-agent locations through a downloaded npx tool. This meets the install-hook abuse policy for unconsented mutation of foreign or broad agent control surfaces. - **Files touched:** scripts/postinstall.mjs, lib/postinstall.js, lib/skills/builtin-skill.js, lib/skills/npx-skills-add.js, lib/skills/skill-presence.js, .agents/skills, .claude/skills ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 98.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** The package automatically runs a postinstall hook., The hook loads code that installs a built-in skill., The installer invokes npx skills@latest with global installation arguments., The skill lookup targets both .agents/skills and .claude/skills, broad AI-agent control locations., Published runtime files are deliberately obfuscated, concealing lifecycle behavior. - **Evidence against:** No credential harvesting or direct data-exfiltration endpoint was confirmed in the inspected lifecycle path., The package bundles a named Lovrabet skill rather than selecting a runtime dependency on itself. ## Public findings ### 1.
