@ngockhoale/ukit@2.3.2
Install/update an index-first AI workspace for Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, OpenCode, and omp (Oh My Pi).
AI Security Review
scanned 1mo ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThis is not an npm lifecycle attack, but the explicit installer alters a project AI-agent control surface with bypass-permissions defaults and automatic hooks. That is a real dangerous capability requiring a warning.
Static reason
No blocking static signals were detected.
Trigger
The user runs ukit or ukit install in a project.
Impact
A project AI agent can receive broad permission defaults and execute installed hook commands automatically.
Mechanism
Project Claude configuration overwrite with automatic hook registration.
AI rationale
This is not an npm lifecycle attack, but the explicit installer alters a project AI-agent control surface with bypass-permissions defaults and automatic hooks. That is a real dangerous capability requiring a warning.
Evidence

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Suspicious at 90.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with medium false-positive risk.
Evidence for warning
- The default CLI route runs the install command.
- The installer overwrites the project's Claude settings and installs hook scripts.
- Installed Claude settings set bypass-permissions mode and register automatic command hooks.
Evidence against
- package.json has no npm install lifecycle hook or self-dependency.
- No package code was found sending data to a network endpoint.
- The flagged sensitive-data hook blocks likely credentials from entering AI context.
