## 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:** 0.0.2-rc.14
- **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: suspicious; recommendation: downgrade to warn. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The package performs unconsented install-time global tooling changes and runtime dsh profile registration. The behavior is transparent and package-aligned, but remains too invasive for a clean verdict.

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:** On Windows installation can make global package-manager changes and contact selected npm registries. The desktop helper can add this package to the dsh web profile when invoked.

- **Trigger:** Installing the package on Windows; invoking the desktop sidecar for profile assembly.

- **Impact:** A consumer can receive globally installed tooling and a persistent dsh plugin registration without an explicit setup command.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/postinstall.mjs, scripts/assemble-profile.mjs, bin/dsh-web-sidecar.mjs, lib/server/terminal-pty-api.js, lib/server/token.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-08-28T11:07:19.290Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** Automatic global dependency installation and dsh profile bundle registration.

- **Rationale:** The package performs unconsented install-time global tooling changes and runtime dsh profile registration. The behavior is transparent and package-aligned, but remains too invasive for a clean verdict.

- **Files touched:** package.json, scripts/postinstall.mjs, scripts/postuninstall.mjs, scripts/assemble-profile.mjs, bin/dsh-web-sidecar.mjs, lib/index.js, lib/server/terminal-pty-api.js, lib/services/pty-manager.js, src/server/workspace-api.ts

- **Network endpoints:** https://registry.npmjs.org/, https://registry.npmmirror.com, https://mirrors.huaweicloud.com/repository/npm/, https://mirrors.cloud.tencent.com/npm/

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 94.0%

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

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for warning:** Installation automatically runs a postinstall script., The postinstall script probes four registries and globally installs dsh or pnpm when absent., The desktop helper registers this package as a bundle in the dsh web profile and creates a junction to it.

- **Evidence against:** No credential harvesting or data exfiltration was found., No obfuscation, remote code loader, or self-dependency was found., Runtime terminal and workspace actions are guarded by a loopback host check and a per-process token.
