## 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:** 2.3.0
- **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: suspicious; recommendation: downgrade to warn. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

This is not malicious install-hook abuse because there is no npm lifecycle execution and configuration occurs through an explicit user CLI command. It remains a guarded agent-extension lifecycle risk because it persists hooks and agent settings in the project.

## Latest scan

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:** An explicit \`ukit install\` writes AI-agent settings, hooks, skills, and links into the current project. Those hooks then execute local package-managed scripts during supported agent events.

- **Trigger:** A user runs the UKit CLI install command and subsequently uses the configured AI agent.

- **Impact:** The package gains persistent control over configured agent behavior in that project; the image routing hook can direct an agent to retrieve user-supplied image URLs.

- **Evidence paths:** manifests/platform.full.yaml, templates/.claude/settings.json, templates/.claude/hooks/vision-router.sh

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-09-13T23:20:02.624Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** Project-level AI-agent configuration and hook installation.

- **Rationale:** This is not malicious install-hook abuse because there is no npm lifecycle execution and configuration occurs through an explicit user CLI command. It remains a guarded agent-extension lifecycle risk because it persists hooks and agent settings in the project.

- **Files touched:** .claude/settings.json, .claude/hooks/sensitive-data-guard.sh, .claude/hooks/vision-router.sh, .claude/ukit/, .codex/settings.json, .codex/skills, .codex/agents

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 88.0%

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

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for warning:** The explicit UKit CLI installs project-level Claude and Codex control files, including settings and agent links., Installed Claude settings register command hooks that run on agent tool events., The vision hook runs a local extractor on prompt input and directs an agent to download image URLs.

- **Evidence against:** package.json has no npm lifecycle hook, so installation does not automatically execute this behavior., The sensitive-data hook blocks detected secrets and redacts output rather than sending values elsewhere., No package-controlled network endpoint or credential exfiltration path was found.
