## 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:** 2.2.1
- **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: suspicious; recommendation: downgrade to warn. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

This is an explicit-user-command, first-party AI workspace installer with project configuration and hook writes. The capability warrants a warning under policy, but source inspection does not establish malicious behavior.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 88.0%
- **Started:** 2026-08-22T02:05:07.126Z

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 install-time execution occurs. A user-invoked install writes first-party AI workspace configuration, hooks, and local image-analysis cache assets into the selected project.

- **Trigger:** User runs the ukit CLI install command.

- **Impact:** Installed hooks can read supplied/session image data and influence Claude/Codex workspace behavior; no exfiltration or remote execution was confirmed.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, src/cli/index.js, src/cli/adapters.js, manifests/platform.full.yaml, templates/.claude/hooks/vision-router.sh, templates/.claude/ukit/index/extract-image.mjs

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-08-22T02:06:14.962Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** Project-local AI-agent extension and hook installation.

- **Rationale:** This is an explicit-user-command, first-party AI workspace installer with project configuration and hook writes. The capability warrants a warning under policy, but source inspection does not establish malicious behavior.

- **Files touched:** .claude/hooks/vision-router.sh, .claude/ukit/index/extract-image.mjs, .codex/settings.json, .codex/settings.local.json, .ukit/storage/cache/vision

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 88.0%

- **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for warning:** Explicit CLI install deploys AI-tool assets into the current project., Manifest installs Claude hooks and Codex settings., Installed vision hook processes prompt image references via a local helper., Image helper reads session content and writes only project-local cache markers/images.

- **Evidence against:** package.json has no preinstall, install, or postinstall hook., No source-backed exfiltration, remote payload loading, or destructive behavior found., Vision helper states it has no dependencies or network calls., Benchmark shell spawning is an explicitly invoked maintainer script.

## Affected versions and remediation
