Treat them as untrusted evidence. 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:** 0.2.1 - **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. Static inspection found a package-aligned native-module verifier and an explicitly invoked rendering utility, not a concrete malicious chain. The lifecycle hook does not mutate foreign agent configuration or perform network/exfiltration behavior. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 90.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-20T15:17:58.065Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-20T15:18:30.432Z - **Download time:** 1009 ms - **Static scan time:** 1149 ms - **AI review time:** 30207 ms - **Total time:** 32367 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 confirmed malicious attack surface. The install hook is a local native dependency check; the renderer's browser download and URL access require explicit execution with user input. - **Trigger:** npm postinstall for the local verifier; explicit invocation of the bundled PDF renderer. - **Impact:** No unconsented persistence, credential exfiltration, destructive action, or broad AI-agent control-surface mutation was established. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, verify-native-install.mjs, assets/skills/pdf/scripts/render\_html.cjs, README.md - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-20T15:18:30.432Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** native SQLite smoke test and user-invoked Playwright PDF rendering - **Rationale:** Static inspection found a package-aligned native-module verifier and an explicitly invoked rendering utility, not a concrete malicious chain. The lifecycle hook does not mutate foreign agent configuration or perform network/exfiltration behavior. - **Files touched:** verify-native-install.mjs, assets/skills/pdf/scripts/render\_html.cjs ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 90.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** Postinstall runs a local native SQLite compatibility check., Bundled PDF helper can install Playwright Chromium only when explicitly run and launch fails. - **Evidence against:** No install hook writes agent configuration, harvests credentials, or contacts a network endpoint., The postinstall verifier loads better-sqlite3 and performs an in-memory SQLite smoke test., PDF rendering accepts a user-supplied file/URL and output path; its network-capable behavior is not import- or install-triggered., CLI is documented as an interactive coding agent; filesystem and command capabilities are user-invoked. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @minimax-ai/code@0.2.1. - Review the evidence and your use of @minimax-ai/code@0.2.1 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.
