Installation is configured to invoke a Pi-extension installer, but that installer is not present in the package archive. The bundled extension can alter Pi agent context only when Pi loads it in a discovered Agency workbase. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 78.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-21T07:19:14.481Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-21T07:20:18.531Z - **Download time:** 510 ms - **Static scan time:** 2426 ms - **AI review time:** 61111 ms - **Total time:** 64050 ms ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** Installation is configured to invoke a Pi-extension installer, but that installer is not present in the package archive. The bundled extension can alter Pi agent context only when Pi loads it in a discovered Agency workbase. - **Trigger:** npm postinstall; subsequently, Pi agent startup in an Agency workbase - **Impact:** Potential agent-extension lifecycle risk; no verified install-time write, network exfiltration, or remote payload execution. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, pi-extensions/agency.ts, scripts/install-pi-extension.ts - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-21T07:20:18.531Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** first-party Pi extension hook and prompt/skill-path injection - **Rationale:** A postinstall intended to install a first-party agent extension warrants a warning under the lifecycle policy, but the archive lacks the installer and source inspection found no concrete exfiltration, destructive action, or remote payload execution. - **Files touched:** package.json, pi-extensions/agency.ts ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 78.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for:** package.json declares an npm postinstall invoking a Pi-extension installer., The bundled Pi extension registers resource discovery and agent-start hooks., When loaded, it injects Agency workbase instructions into Pi system prompts. - **Evidence against:** The referenced scripts/install-pi-extension.ts is absent from this extracted package, so its install-time writes cannot be verified., No direct HTTP/network API, eval/vm use, credential harvesting, or exfiltration was found in non-test TypeScript source., The extension gates behavior on discovering an Agency workbase and valid context. ## Public findings ### 1.
