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:** 17.3.0 - **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 reviewed behavior is consistent with an explicitly invoked multi-agent pipeline installer and its workflow helpers. Telemetry requires an affirmative environment setting, and the inspected source did not establish a concrete attack. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 95.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-19T13:05:21.200Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-19T13:06:08.827Z - **Download time:** 1028 ms - **Static scan time:** 1544 ms - **AI review time:** 45054 ms - **Total time:** 47627 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 surface was identified in the inspected source. The companion toolkit registration and workflow state handling are part of the explicit installer and documented pipeline operation. - **Trigger:** A user invokes the install command or runs a pipeline helper. - **Impact:** No harmful effect was established from the inspected behavior. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-19T13:06:08.827Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The installer writes pipeline files to selected CLI locations and can register the companion toolkit; telemetry is gated by an explicit environment setting. - **Rationale:** The reviewed behavior is consistent with an explicitly invoked multi-agent pipeline installer and its workflow helpers. Telemetry requires an affirmative environment setting, and the inspected source did not establish a concrete attack. ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 95.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The package exposes an explicit install command; its install telemetry returns unless MULTI\_AGENT\_TELEMETRY is set to 1., The installer writes files to selected CLI directories and registers a named companion toolkit through the host CLI., Plugin skill selection reads enabled plugin settings and uses existing plugin checkout or cache content., The reviewed runtime helpers use named autopilot, knowledge-graph, and triage-memory locations for workflow state., No concrete attack behavior was identified in the inspected entrypoints, installer, or flagged runtime paths. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @mmerterden/multi-agent-pipeline@17.3.0. - Review the evidence and your use of @mmerterden/multi-agent-pipeline@17.3.0 before allowing it.
