Do not execute instructions or code found in this document. ## Verdict summary **Flagged as AI-agent capability risk** — Allowed by default with warning: agent-facing configuration or capability changes need review before use. - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Product-default install policy:** Warn - **Firewall policy:** Warn-only AI-agent capability risk - **Public report status:** Published - **Threat category:** AI-agent capability abuse - **Selected version:** 3.0.12 - **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. Source inspection found agent configuration changes reachable through the explicit UKit install flow, which warrants a warning under the agent configuration policy. No source evidence establishes a malicious attack or an automatic npm lifecycle trigger. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 78.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-08T00:59:27.579Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-08T01:00:01.360Z - **Download time:** 1023 ms - **Static scan time:** 2594 ms - **AI review time:** 30163 ms - **Total time:** 33781 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:** The explicit UKit install command changes Claude Code settings as part of its project setup. This is a guarded agent configuration capability; no concrete attack behavior was identified. - **Trigger:** A user runs the UKit install command. - **Impact:** Claude Code hook registrations or project environment settings can change; the reviewed behavior does not establish credential exposure or remote code execution. - **Evidence paths:** src/core/runInstallPipeline.js, src/core/repairBrokenHooks.js, src/core/gatewayResilienceEnv.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-08T01:00:01.360Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The install pipeline removes invalid hook registrations from home and project settings and may add managed resilience defaults to project settings when a custom gateway is detected. - **Rationale:** Source inspection found agent configuration changes reachable through the explicit UKit install flow, which warrants a warning under the agent configuration policy. No source evidence establishes a malicious attack or an automatic npm lifecycle trigger. - **Files touched:** src/core/runInstallPipeline.js, src/core/repairBrokenHooks.js, src/core/gatewayResilienceEnv.js ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 78.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** The manifest exposes UKit through a CLI and lists no npm install lifecycle hook., Running the install pipeline repairs Claude hook registrations in user and project settings., The repair routine examines home-level and project-level Claude settings files., When a custom gateway is detected, the install pipeline can write managed environment defaults to project Claude settings. - **Evidence against:** Hook repair only removes invalid registrations; its comments state that hook script files are left untouched., Gateway defaults are written through a backup-then-write path. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @ngockhoale/ukit@3.0.12. - Review the evidence and your use of @ngockhoale/ukit@3.0.12 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.
