AI Security Review
scanned 6d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe postinstall hook automatically installs an extension that can change Pi's later session context, which warrants a warning for agent extension lifecycle risk. The inspected extension behavior is workbase-specific and does not establish credential transfer or another concrete attack.
Static reason
One or more suspicious static signals were detected.; source matched previously finalized malicious package; routed for review
Trigger
Installing the npm package triggers its postinstall script.
Impact
The extension can affect agent context in later Pi sessions. The inspected behavior does not establish credential theft or another concrete attack.
Mechanism
The installer copies the extension into Pi's global agent extensions directory. The extension then uses local Agency context and workbase files during Pi session events.
AI rationale
The postinstall hook automatically installs an extension that can change Pi's later session context, which warrants a warning for agent extension lifecycle risk. The inspected extension behavior is workbase-specific and does not establish credential transfer or another concrete attack.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Suspicious at 88.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with medium false-positive risk.
Evidence for warning
- The package runs its Pi extension installer automatically from its postinstall hook.
- The installer places the package's extension in Pi's global extensions directory and copies it there when absent.
- The extension adds workbase-specific instructions to Pi's system prompt and can expose skill directories from the writable checkout.
- The cited project integration path points to workbase agent instructions and OpenCode configuration; those project integrations are handled separately from the global postinstall installer.
Evidence against
- The inspected extension hooks use local Agency context and workbase files; they show no credential transfer or external send.
