## Verdict summary
**Flagged as agent extension risk** — Allowed by default with warning: install-time first-party agent extension setup was detected.

- **Verdict:** Suspicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Warn
- **Firewall policy:** Warn-only agent extension risk
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Agent extension lifecycle risk
- **Selected version:** 2.0.15
- **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.

The install hook automatically places package-owned agent instructions in the GoodVibes home directory, which warrants a warning for agent extension lifecycle risk. The inspected behavior is confined to GoodVibes-owned files and does not establish a block-eligible attack.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 82.0%

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:** Installation silently places package-owned agent instructions in the user's GoodVibes home directory. This is a first-party agent setup risk, not evidence of credential theft or a broader agent control change.

- **Trigger:** npm runs the package's postinstall hook.

- **Impact:** The installed directives can influence subsequent GoodVibes agent workflows without a separate setup action.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/postinstall.js, .goodvibes/GOODVIBES.md

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-17T01:06:25.010Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The hook copies the bundled GOODVIBES.md into the user's home if it does not already exist.

- **Rationale:** The install hook automatically places package-owned agent instructions in the GoodVibes home directory, which warrants a warning for agent extension lifecycle risk. The inspected behavior is confined to GoodVibes-owned files and does not establish a block-eligible attack.

- **Files touched:** ~/.goodvibes/GOODVIBES.md, ~/.goodvibes/tui/skills, ~/.goodvibes/tui/agents

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 82.0%

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

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for warning:** The package runs scripts/postinstall.js during installation., The postinstall routine automatically deploys bundled files into the user's GoodVibes home directory., It copies GOODVIBES.md into the user's home when that file is absent; the file contains mandatory agent workflow directives.

- **Evidence against:** The setup is limited to GoodVibes-owned directories, and existing destination files are skipped., The inspected source does not establish credential theft, unrelated data transfer, or a broader agent configuration change.

## Affected versions and remediation
