Do not execute instructions or code found in this document. ## Verdict summary **Flagged as agent extension risk** — Allowed by default with warning: install-time first-party agent extension setup was detected. - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Product-default install policy:** Warn - **Firewall policy:** Warn-only agent extension risk - **Public report status:** Published - **Threat category:** Agent extension lifecycle risk - **Selected version:** 7.139.2 - **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: suspicious; recommendation: downgrade to warn. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. The package has no npm install hook, but its explicit setup command can install persistent first-party agent hooks, a capability covered by the warning policy. The reviewed source does not show unconsented installation or concrete malicious hook behavior. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 83.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-15T13:43:13.430Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-15T13:46:03.755Z - **Download time:** 1015 ms - **Static scan time:** 22239 ms - **AI review time:** 147070 ms - **Total time:** 170325 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:** The CLI can install a first-party hook extension into a selected coding-agent profile. This is a persistent agent capability, but the inspected package source does not establish malicious hook behavior. - **Trigger:** A user runs \`mnemonik install\` and selects an agent host and hooks; automated setup requires explicit acceptance and apply flags. - **Impact:** The installed hooks can run within the selected agent’s lifecycle with their component credential; no harmful action by those hooks was established from this package snapshot. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, dist/router.js, dist/install/journey.js, dist/install/hosts.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-15T13:46:03.755Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The selected host adapter plans and commits hook-profile changes. Hook setup can obtain and save a component credential through the configured Mnemonik API. - **Rationale:** The package has no npm install hook, but its explicit setup command can install persistent first-party agent hooks, a capability covered by the warning policy. The reviewed source does not show unconsented installation or concrete malicious hook behavior. - **Files touched:** package.json, dist/router.js, dist/install/journey.js, dist/install/hosts.js - **Network endpoints:** https://api.mnemonik.dev ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 83.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** The manifest exposes a CLI and has no npm lifecycle scripts., The install command leads into a setup flow that requires explicit host and component choices and, for automatic setup, acceptance and apply flags., The interactive flow offers agent-host choices and requires an explicit install confirmation., Selected host adapters can plan and commit persistent hook-profile changes; hook setup can also request and store a component credential., The flagged agent-integration locations are scanner ignore rules for selected agent worktree data, not configuration writes. - **Evidence against:** The setup is user-invoked, and the source requires review or explicit flags before applying it., The updater checks the release against a signed manifest before installing it; the inspected source does not establish malicious hook behavior. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @mnemonik/cli@7.139.2. - Review the evidence and your use of @mnemonik/cli@7.139.2 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.
