## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 16 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:** 0.2.161
- **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.

Static inspection found no registry install hook and the required agent-integration path is used by an explicit read-only verification command. No concrete malicious behavior was identified.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 94.0%
- **Started:** 2026-09-29T06:18:44.363Z

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 confirmed attack surface was identified. The inspected agent integration is a read-only drift check for named skill sidecars.

- **Trigger:** A user explicitly runs the architect-check CLI command.

- **Impact:** No configuration write, credential forwarding, or unconsented install-time action was established.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-09-29T06:22:50.154Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The command locates existing m8t architect sidecars and reads JSON metadata for comparison with a local source hash.

- **Rationale:** Static inspection found no registry install hook and the required agent-integration path is used by an explicit read-only verification command. No concrete malicious behavior was identified.

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 94.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The manifest exposes the bundle as a CLI and lists only a publish-time build hook, not an install-time lifecycle hook., The specified agent-integration location builds paths for existing named m8t architect skill locations., The drift check reads a resolved sidecar as UTF-8 JSON to compare metadata., The agent check is registered as the explicit architect-check command.

## Affected versions and remediation
