## 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:** 2.4.2
- **Selected version is latest:** No
- **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai)

LPM treats this as warn-only first-party agent extension lifecycle risk. Installing the package automatically installs its bundled Rabetbase agent skill globally through an external Skills CLI. This persists package-supplied instructions into recognized agent skill directories.

## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** Installing the package automatically installs its bundled Rabetbase agent skill globally through an external Skills CLI. This persists package-supplied instructions into recognized agent skill directories.

- **Trigger:** npm postinstall

- **Impact:** Modifies the user's global agent extension surface without an explicit CLI command.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/postinstall.mjs, lib/postinstall.js, lib/skills/builtin-skill.js, lib/skills/npx-skills-add.js, lib/skills/skill-presence.js, skills/rabetbase/SKILL.md

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-08-11T12:54:52.929Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** unattended global AI-agent skill installation via npx

- **Rationale:** This is a concrete install-time first-party agent-extension setup, which warrants warning under the stated policy. Source inspection found no confirmed theft, destructive action, remote payload loader, or foreign/broad agent-control takeover.

- **Files touched:** scripts/postinstall.mjs, lib/postinstall.js, lib/skills/builtin-skill.js, lib/skills/npx-skills-add.js, skills/rabetbase/SKILL.md

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 94.0%

- **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for:** package.json defines postinstall., scripts/postinstall.mjs imports lib/postinstall.js at install time., lib/postinstall.js invokes installBuiltinSkill()., lib/skills/npx-skills-add.js runs npx skills@latest add \<bundled skill\> -g -y., lib/skills/skill-presence.js targets global .agents/skills and .claude/skills locations.

- **Evidence against:** Bundled skill is local and manifest/digest-validated before installation., skills/rabetbase/SKILL.md is product workflow documentation; no credential theft or hidden payload found., No package-controlled exfiltration endpoint or eval/vm payload execution was found.
