Installation downloads a staged native binary and installs first-party GoodVibes agent assets under the user home directory. No confirmed execution of the staged binary during installation or exfiltration was found. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 82.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-22T00:53:57.791Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-22T00:54:57.314Z - **Download time:** 763 ms - **Static scan time:** 6078 ms - **AI review time:** 52680 ms - **Total time:** 59523 ms ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** Installation downloads a staged native binary and installs first-party GoodVibes agent assets under the user home directory. No confirmed execution of the staged binary during installation or exfiltration was found. - **Trigger:** npm postinstall - **Impact:** A compromised release endpoint could supply a binary later launched by the goodvibes command; installed agent instructions can influence GoodVibes workflows. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/postinstall.js, .goodvibes/GOODVIBES.md - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-22T00:54:57.314Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** first-party agent extension deployment plus remote binary staging - **Rationale:** This is a real lifecycle risk but not concrete malicious behavior: writes are confined to the vendor's own GoodVibes namespace, are non-overwriting, and no exfiltration or install-time payload execution was found. Warn because it combines lifecycle agent-surface setup with remotely staged native code. - **Files touched:** scripts/postinstall.js, ~/.goodvibes/tui/skills, ~/.goodvibes/tui/agents, ~/.goodvibes/GOODVIBES.md, vendor/SHA256SUMS.txt, vendor/goodvibes-\* - **Network endpoints:** https://github.com/mgd34msu/goodvibes-tui ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 82.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for:** postinstall copies bundled agent skills, agent definitions, and GOODVIBES.md into ~/.goodvibes when absent., postinstall downloads and stages a release binary; its checksum manifest is fetched from the same release location., Bundled GOODVIBES.md imposes mandatory multi-agent execution directives on the installed agent surface. - **Evidence against:** The agent files target the package-owned ~/.goodvibes namespace and do not overwrite existing destinations., The lifecycle script does not execute the downloaded binary during installation., No credential harvesting, external exfiltration, destructive action, or foreign agent-control-surface write was found in inspected sources. ## Public findings ### 1.
