@north-light/crouter@0.3.373: Suspicious npm security report | LPM Firewall

AI called this Suspicious at 91.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with medium false-positive risk.

Evidence for warning

Normal CLI startup invokes first-run initialization; an environment switch or existing completion marker skips it.
First-run initialization automatically installs missing companion extensions, the official marketplace, and selected predefined plugins.
Companion installation invokes the bundled Pi installer and rewrites the extension package entry in Pi settings.
The settings destination uses the package terminal application directory by default, with an environment override.
The explicit setup wizard separately requires confirmation for pending installs.

Evidence against

The inspected postinstall flow installs the package runtime and provisions its renderer; it does not invoke the first-run companion installer.
The flagged Claude integration reads command sources and creates prompt shims; the viewer location renders guidance filenames.
No concrete credential exfiltration or malicious foreign-agent install-hook mutation was established.
