## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 18 low-signal pattern(s) reviewed.

- **Verdict:** Clean
- **Product-default install policy:** Allow
- **Firewall policy:** No policy match
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** None published
- **Selected version:** 0.402.206
- **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: clean; recommendation: mark clean. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The flagged command, credential, and configuration behaviors inspected have package-related purposes and are not evidence of exfiltration or unauthorized account action. Runtime telemetry is disclosed and can be disabled; the statusline writes Claude settings only when explicitly installed.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 91.0%
- **Started:** 2026-10-30T15:12:22.010Z
- **Finished:** 2026-10-30T15:13:22.601Z

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:** No attack was identified; the reviewed network and configuration behavior matches the PAPI server and statusline purpose.

- **Trigger:** Runtime telemetry requires an enabled setting, a PAPI data API key, and a configured endpoint; statusline setup requires the explicit --install argument.

- **Impact:** The reviewed behavior reports usage metadata and displays PAPI status. The settings write occurs only on explicit installation.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-30T15:13:22.601Z

### AI review details

- **Review stage:** source\_first\_review

- **Mechanism:** Telemetry sends disclosed tool/event metadata to the PAPI data endpoint. The statusline reads the configured PAPI endpoint and bearer token to request /peek; its install option writes a statusLine entry to Claude settings.

- **Rationale:** The flagged command, credential, and configuration behaviors inspected have package-related purposes and are not evidence of exfiltration or unauthorized account action. Runtime telemetry is disclosed and can be disabled; the statusline writes Claude settings only when explicitly installed.

- **Files touched:** ~/.claude/settings.json, /tmp/papi-statusline-\<hash\>.json

- **Network endpoints:** Configured PAPI data endpoint, Configured PAPI endpoint /peek, registry.npmjs.org

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 91.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The README discloses runtime telemetry of tool name, duration, and project UUID, and documents an opt-out., Telemetry requires a PAPI data API key and sends tool/event metadata to the configured PAPI data endpoint., The statusline sends its bearer token to the \`/peek\` route on the endpoint resolved from user-supplied configuration., Writing the Claude settings file is behind the explicit \`papi-statusline --install\` command.

- **Evidence against:** The manifest has no lifecycle scripts; its main entry is the PAPI server., The inspected credential and configuration flows serve the package’s PAPI status display and setup behavior.

## Affected versions and remediation
