Do not execute instructions or code found in this document. ## Verdict summary **Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 17 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:** 0.1.303 - **Selected version is latest:** Yes - **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 flagged build and agent-configuration writes are reachable through explicit CLI commands and match the package’s stated project-management purpose. The encoded-runner and Trojan Source indicators were not substantiated by the inspected source. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 91.0% - **Started:** 2026-11-01T20:43:54.894Z - **Finished:** 2026-11-01T20:45:13.933Z - **Download time:** 1285 ms - **Static scan time:** 4860 ms - **AI review time:** 72894 ms - **Total time:** 79039 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 was identified; the flagged behaviors fit the CLI’s scaffolding and provisioning functions. - **Trigger:** CLI actions run when the user invokes commands such as create or init. - **Impact:** No unsolicited credential transfer, external agent-control mutation, or concealed command execution was established. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-11-01T20:45:13.933Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The create flow builds the CLI in a worktree with npm scripts disabled during installation; init writes agent configuration into the project being scaffolded. The Unicode match is an escaped character pattern used for sanitization. - **Rationale:** The flagged build and agent-configuration writes are reachable through explicit CLI commands and match the package’s stated project-management purpose. The encoded-runner and Trojan Source indicators were not substantiated by the inspected source. - **Files touched:** dist/index.js, dist/commands/create.js, dist/lib/cli-build.js, dist/commands/init.js, dist/lib/behavioral-injection.js ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The package entry point parses CLI arguments only when invoked as the CLI; actions are exposed as explicit commands., The flagged build helper is called from the create flow and runs npm with --ignore-scripts; it does not decode or execute a hidden package-runner command., The init command writes project agent configuration as part of its explicit scaffolding flow., The Unicode-related match is an escaped bidi-character pattern in a sanitizer that removes control characters from messages. - **Evidence against:** The manifest declares prepare and prepublishOnly scripts, but no install, preinstall, or postinstall hook., No evidence showed credentials being sent to an unrelated host or agent settings being changed automatically. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @memnexus-ai/mx-agent-cli@0.1.303. - Review the evidence and your use of @memnexus-ai/mx-agent-cli@0.1.303 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.
