## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 12 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:** 0.15.0
- **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 scanner's credential and command-output findings resolve to the CLI's intended provider-backed PR review flow: credentials go to endpoints derived from the user's configured provider URL. The package exposes a command-line entry point and the review runs when requested; the only lifecycle script builds the package.

## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** No attack was identified. This is a user-invoked PR review CLI that sends requests to the configured model provider.

- **Trigger:** A user runs yoke review, or configures and runs the separate CI workflow command.

- **Impact:** PR review data is sent to the configured model provider as part of the requested review; no credential redirect or unrelated collector was found.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-11-02T13:03:10.032Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The CLI derives model endpoints from the configured provider base URL and passes its credential to the selected review harness.

- **Rationale:** The scanner's credential and command-output findings resolve to the CLI's intended provider-backed PR review flow: credentials go to endpoints derived from the user's configured provider URL. The package exposes a command-line entry point and the review runs when requested; the only lifecycle script builds the package.

- **Network endpoints:** login.microsoftonline.com, cognitiveservices.azure.com, user-configured LiteLLM or Foundry base URL

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 98.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The manifest exposes dist/cli.js as the yoke command; its only lifecycle script is prepublishOnly, which runs the build., LiteLLM and Foundry credentials are configured with a provider base URL; keys are limited to environment variables or user-level config., Provider endpoints are derived from the configured base URL, and the CLI passes the matching credential to the selected Claude or Codex harness., The review behavior is registered under the explicit yoke review command, which reviews a PR and combines reviewer findings.
