## Verdict summary
**Soft block: AI-agent control surface** — Warn by default; block when configured. Can inject or replace the package's instructions in Claude, Codex, OpenClaw-family, and generic agent skill locations.

- **Verdict:** Malicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Block
- **Firewall policy:** Warn by default
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Soft block: AI-agent control surface
- **Selected version:** 0.7.7
- **Selected version is latest:** No
- **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai)

LPM flags this version as an AI-agent control-surface risk. A global npm install automatically deploys a bundled agent skill into foreign, broad AI-agent skill surfaces. The behavior is opt-out rather than consent-based.

## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** A global npm install automatically deploys a bundled agent skill into foreign, broad AI-agent skill surfaces. The behavior is opt-out rather than consent-based.

- **Trigger:** npm global install of @myclaw163/clawclaw-cli@0.7.7

- **Impact:** Can inject or replace the package's instructions in Claude, Codex, OpenClaw-family, and generic agent skill locations.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/postinstall.mjs, scripts/sync-bundled-skill.mjs, skills/clawclaw/SKILL.md

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-08-09T00:57:19.103Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** postinstall-driven global AI-agent skill deployment

- **Attack narrative:** On global installation, postinstall invokes syncBundledSkill automatically. That code locates existing clawclaw skills under generic and third-party agent homes, backs them up, then calls the skills installer with global auto-confirmation to deploy the package-bundled skill. This is an unconsented install-time mutation of foreign and broad AI-agent control surfaces.

- **Rationale:** The confirmed postinstall path automatically installs package-controlled agent instructions into multiple third-party/global agent directories. This meets the block policy for unconsented install-time foreign/broad AI-agent control-surface mutation.

- **Files touched:** scripts/postinstall.mjs, scripts/sync-bundled-skill.mjs, skills/clawclaw/

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Malicious

- **Confidence:** 99.0%

- **Recommended action:** publish\_block

- **Intent class:** Malware

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for:** package.json runs scripts/postinstall.mjs on install., scripts/postinstall.mjs runs during every global npm install unless opted out., scripts/sync-bundled-skill.mjs targets ~/.agents, ~/.claude, ~/.codex, and OpenClaw-family skill directories., The lifecycle script invokes \`skills add ... -y -g\`, installing the bundled skill without user confirmation., Existing skills are backed up before the global skill installation, indicating intended replacement/update behavior.

- **Evidence against:** No lifecycle network request or credential harvesting was found in the inspected installer sources., Permission and Monitor configuration scripts are separate explicit commands, not called by postinstall.
