@ngockhoale/ukit@2.3.23
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 a transparent but powerful explicit-user AI-agent extension installer, so it warrants a warning under the agent-control policy. It does not show concrete malicious install behavior or exfiltration.
Static reason
No blocking static signals were detected.
Trigger
A user runs `ukit install` in a project.
Impact
Installed hooks can intercept, block, and influence Claude Code tool and prompt events within that project.
Mechanism
Project-local AI-agent configuration and hook installation.
AI rationale
This is a transparent but powerful explicit-user AI-agent extension installer, so it warrants a warning under the agent-control policy. It does not show concrete malicious install behavior or exfiltration.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Suspicious at 91.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with medium false-positive risk.
Evidence for warning
- The explicit `ukit install` command builds and applies a project install plan.
- That plan overwrites `.claude/settings.json` and installs executable hooks that run on Claude tool and prompt events.
- The installed hooks can block agent actions and load package-provided local runtime code.
Evidence against
- package.json has no preinstall, install, postinstall, or self-dependency.
- No outbound network implementation was found in shipped runtime source; repository URLs are metadata only.
- The sensitive-data hook detects and blocks secret-bearing input rather than transmitting it, and the watchdog imports only a project-local runtime file.
- Install-plan path resolution rejects targets outside the chosen project root.
