## 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:** 0.7.104
- **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 supports a warning for explicit agent configuration mutation and persistent command execution. The scanner's credential-redirection and install-time implications were not substantiated by the inspected flows.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 90.0%

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:** User-invoked setup changes agent permissions and hooks. Explicit statusline installation persists a command in user Claude settings; no confirmed malicious attack was established.

- **Trigger:** A setup tool request or execution of the statusline helper with --install.

- **Impact:** Agent behavior and future command execution change after setup, including permission allowances and potentially newer CLI releases.

- **Evidence paths:** dist/index.js, dist/statusline.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-04T03:39:42.616Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** Setup merges PAPI tool permissions and design hooks into project settings. Statusline installation adds an npx command without pinning its package version.

- **Rationale:** Source inspection supports a warning for explicit agent configuration mutation and persistent command execution. The scanner's credential-redirection and install-time implications were not substantiated by the inspected flows.

- **Files touched:** .claude/settings.json, ~/.claude/settings.json, .claude/hooks/frontend-design-guard.sh

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 90.0%

- **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for warning:** Explicit setup writes Claude permissions allowing PAPI tools and registers a project design hook., The statusline helper requires --install to modify user Claude settings, installing an npx command that can resolve later CLI releases., package.json has no preinstall, install, or postinstall hook and no runtime self-dependency., The flagged backfill location reads CLAUDE.md paths from Git history rather than modifying agent instructions., The main setup handler invokes project preparation on a setup request., Device setup saves a PAPI key received from its approval flow, rather than harvesting an existing unrelated service credential.

- **Evidence against:** No concrete covert exfiltration or malicious install-time behavior was established., Statusline installation preserves an existing statusLine entry.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to @papi-ai/server@0.7.104.

- Review the evidence and your use of @papi-ai/server@0.7.104 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.
