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. 19 low-signal pattern(s) reviewed. - **Verdict:** Manual Review - **Product-default install policy:** Allow - **Firewall policy:** No policy match - **Public report status:** Under Review - **Threat category:** Unknown - **Selected version:** 0.79.0 - **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: manual review; recommendation: manual review. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. The inspected excerpts show ordinary agent-skill, event, run, and configured-command behavior, but they do not resolve the package’s full runtime surface. No concrete attack is established, so the source does not support either a clean verdict or a malicious finding. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Manual Review - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 47.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-19T11:09:45.324Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-19T11:11:46.960Z - **Download time:** 4314 ms - **Static scan time:** 2393 ms - **AI review time:** 114926 ms - **Total time:** 121636 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 attack surface was established in the inspected source excerpts. Package-wide runtime behavior remains unresolved. - **Trigger:** No malicious trigger was established in the inspected paths. - **Impact:** No concrete attack impact was confirmed. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-19T11:11:46.960Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The inspected code covers agent skill storage, event handling, local run listing, configured commands, and bundled editor code; these excerpts do not establish unauthorized behavior. - **Rationale:** The inspected excerpts show ordinary agent-skill, event, run, and configured-command behavior, but they do not resolve the package’s full runtime surface. No concrete attack is established, so the source does not support either a clean verdict or a malicious finding. - **Files touched:** package.json, dist/core/skills.js, dist/server/api/agents.js, dist/client/live.js, dist/core/runs.js, dist/remote.js, dist/core/vibeables.js, dist/cli/daemon-control.js, dist/core/runner.js, web/dist/assets/editor-BQlHN7qT.js, web/dist/assets/index-C7ddpWNC.js, web/dist/assets/dist-CYzOYk\_e.js ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Manual Review - **Confidence:** 47.0% - **Recommended action:** manual\_review - **Intent class:** Unknown - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **AI review observations:** The manifest defines a prepublishOnly build command., The required skill location reads project and user skill directories during discovery., Saving an agent skill writes the submitted content under that agent’s own skills directory through a POST route., The inspected client and run-list code handles chat or vibeable events and local run records., Remote resolution accepts a repository specification, and vibeable startup uses its configured development command., The inspected daemon, workflow, and bundled editor excerpts do not establish an attack; package-wide runtime behavior remains unresolved. - **Evidence against:** The package includes code that launches configured project commands and workflow runs; the inspected callers do not establish that these are unauthorized., The inspected excerpts do not resolve all runtime behavior across the package. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @netnodeag/kraftwerk@0.79.0. - Review the evidence and your use of @netnodeag/kraftwerk@0.79.0 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.
