AI Security Review
scanned 14d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiSource inspection found an install-time setup hook that installs the package’s matching core and a CLI that uses that core. The observed setup is package-aligned, with no concrete malicious behavior identified.
Static reason
One or more suspicious static signals were detected.
Trigger
npm postinstall, or starting the CLI when its matching core is not installed.
Impact
The inspected behavior is package-aligned setup; no concrete attack surface was established.
Mechanism
The installer creates a versioned Python environment, installs the hum core, and stages the matching package with npm scripts disabled.
AI rationale
Source inspection found an install-time setup hook that installs the package’s matching core and a CLI that uses that core. The observed setup is package-aligned, with no concrete malicious behavior identified.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Clean at 91.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for AI clean decision
- package.json defines a hum CLI and a postinstall hook that runs this package’s installer.
- The postinstall hook checks the installed core version and installs it only when it differs from this package’s version.
- The installer sets up a Python environment and installs the hum core; it also fetches this package with npm scripts disabled for its versioned runtime directory.
- The CLI uses the installed package entrypoint and runs core setup when its installed core is missing or out of date.
