## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 19 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:** 2.0.0-beta.43
- **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: clean; recommendation: mark clean. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The flagged execution and network activity is consistent with a Claude Code plugin installer and its Brain/chat features. The inspected credential flows send service keys to their respective services, and no install-time hook or unrelated exfiltration was found.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 90.0%

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 identified. The observed process execution and network calls support the package’s plugin installation and Brain/chat features.

- **Trigger:** The user runs the CLI to install or update the plugin; Brain registration happens on a Brain tool call when no key is configured, and chat requests happen when the user submits a message.

- **Impact:** No unauthorized collection or account action was identified in the inspected paths.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-11-01T05:30:02.101Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The CLI delegates plugin operations to Claude’s CLI. Brain requests use the Mindrian Brain service; chat requests send the user-provided Anthropic key to api.anthropic.com.

- **Rationale:** The flagged execution and network activity is consistent with a Claude Code plugin installer and its Brain/chat features. The inspected credential flows send service keys to their respective services, and no install-time hook or unrelated exfiltration was found.

- **Files touched:** ~/.mindrian-install.json, plugin cache node\_modules/

- **Network endpoints:** theo-mcp.onrender.com/register, theo-mcp.onrender.com/mcp, api.anthropic.com/v1/messages

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 90.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The manifest describes an installer for the MindrianOS Claude Code plugin and declares no install lifecycle hook., The CLI invokes Claude’s plugin install and update commands when the user runs the installer., When a Brain tool is called without a key, registration sends a newly generated random install ID to the configured Brain service., The Brain API key is sent as a bearer token to the Brain service endpoint., The chat feature sends its Anthropic key to Anthropic’s official Messages API.

- **Evidence against:** The package includes child-process and shell execution, but the inspected CLI uses these to run Claude, Git, or Node for its stated install, doctor, and update tasks., The Brain client reads the Mindrian-specific key from its environment or key files; the inspected transport sends it to the Brain service., The install-time package scripts are ordinary utilities and do not include preinstall, install, or postinstall hooks.

## Affected versions and remediation
