## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 13 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:** 0.24.2
- **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 manifest has no install lifecycle hook, and the inspected updater operates within its local package prefix. Its operational reports go to an environment-configured callback and include identifiers, but the inspected source does not establish an attack or unauthorized disclosure.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 91.0%

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:** No attack was identified. The package provides command-line tools and a sandbox updater with conditional update reporting.

- **Trigger:** A user invokes a CLI command; the updater runs when its wrapper invokes the shell helper with an available tag and npm.

- **Impact:** The update can change the installed CLI version, and reporting shares operational identifiers. Inspected source does not establish unauthorized credential disclosure or account changes.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-17T07:27:07.011Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The helper installs a tagged release into its designated local prefix and reports update outcomes to the configured callback when the callback URL and token are present.

- **Rationale:** The manifest has no install lifecycle hook, and the inspected updater operates within its local package prefix. Its operational reports go to an environment-configured callback and include identifiers, but the inspected source does not establish an attack or unauthorized disclosure.

- **Files touched:** dl-npm-update.sh

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 91.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** package.json exposes \`dl\` and \`ilands\` as CLI binaries and declares no lifecycle scripts., The \`dl.mjs\` update-event sender returns when the callback URL or token is absent., \`ilands.mjs\` dispatches commands from user-supplied arguments., The updater installs the named package into \`/home/user/.local\` when a tag is available and npm is present., Updater reports require a configured callback URL and token; the report contains update metadata and project, user, prompt, and tool-call identifiers.
