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. The package provides a user-invoked setup command that installs its own Amp integration, a guarded agent extension lifecycle risk. No install lifecycle hook or concrete malicious behavior was identified in the inspected source. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 87.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-11T04:27:21.589Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-11T04:27:37.072Z - **Download time:** 754 ms - **Static scan time:** 87 ms - **AI review time:** 14641 ms - **Total time:** 15483 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 setup CLI installs an Ory permission delegate and plugin loader into Amp configuration. - **Trigger:** A user runs the exposed ory-amp-setup CLI. - **Impact:** This registers package-owned authorization and activity-auditing integration with Amp; no concrete attack was established from the inspected source. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-11T04:27:37.072Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** It updates Amp permissions and writes a plugin loader into the project’s .amp/plugins directory. - **Rationale:** The package provides a user-invoked setup command that installs its own Amp integration, a guarded agent extension lifecycle risk. No install lifecycle hook or concrete malicious behavior was identified in the inspected source. - **Files touched:** package.json, dist/cli/setup.js ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 87.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** The package exposes setup as a user-invoked CLI binary., Running setup writes an Amp permission delegate and an in-process plugin loader, installing package-owned agent integration. - **Evidence against:** package.json has no preinstall, install, or postinstall hook, so the agent configuration changes do not run during package installation., The setup code writes Ory integration entries and includes an uninstall path; no malicious behavior was identified in the inspected source. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @ory/amp@1.3.0. - Review the evidence and your use of @ory/amp@1.3.0 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.
