Do not execute instructions or code found in this document. ## Verdict summary **Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 13 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:** 0.13.1 - **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 findings are consistent with the package's purpose: it routes review work and configured credentials to the chosen model provider, and its skill writes occur through the sync command. The package manifest has no install hook, and review posting is separately requested with --post. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 94.0% - **Started:** 2026-11-02T12:32:21.781Z - **Finished:** 2026-11-02T12:32:58.919Z - **Download time:** 778 ms - **Static scan time:** 294 ms - **AI review time:** 36066 ms - **Total time:** 37138 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:** No attack identified; the package provides a user-invoked code review CLI and skill synchronizer. - **Trigger:** User runs a yoke CLI command, such as review or sync. - **Impact:** Expected review and skill setup behavior; no unsolicited credential forwarding or automatic account action was identified. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-11-02T12:32:58.919Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Review uses the configured model provider and can post findings with --post; sync writes the package's Claude skills to the chosen skill directory. - **Rationale:** The findings are consistent with the package's purpose: it routes review work and configured credentials to the chosen model provider, and its skill writes occur through the sync command. The package manifest has no install hook, and review posting is separately requested with --post. - **Network endpoints:** https://login.microsoftonline.com, https://token.actions.githubusercontent.com, user-configured provider base URL ### 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 a CLI and has no install, preinstall, or postinstall hook; its lifecycle script is prepublishOnly build., Provider endpoints are derived from the configured base URL, and credentials are passed to that provider for the selected model harness., The review command fetches PR data and sends review work to configured reviewers; posting findings requires the --post option., The CLI writes its bundled Claude skills to the selected skill directory through its explicit sync command. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @makerx/yoke@0.13.1. - Review the evidence and your use of @makerx/yoke@0.13.1 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.
