The bundled reviewer agent contains coercive response-format and workflow directives. - **Trigger:** npm install executes postinstall. - **Impact:** Can alter behavior of the GoodVibes agent environment; no confirmed cross-product takeover or data exfiltration. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/postinstall.js, .goodvibes/agents/reviewer.md, .goodvibes/GOODVIBES.md, bin/launcher-support.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-09T23:26:02.631Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** First-party agent-extension deployment plus verified binary bootstrap. - **Rationale:** The package has a real install-time home-directory agent-extension mutation and bundled prompt/control content, but it is confined to its own GoodVibes namespace and no concrete foreign-control, exfiltration, or destructive chain was found. - **Files touched:** scripts/postinstall.js, ~/.goodvibes/tui/skills, ~/.goodvibes/tui/agents, ~/.goodvibes/GOODVIBES.md, vendor/ - **Network endpoints:** https://github.com/ ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 86.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** package.json runs scripts/postinstall.js during npm install., postinstall copies bundled agent/skill files into ~/.goodvibes., .goodvibes/agents/reviewer.md contains agent-output/control directives., postinstall downloads a release binary if its platform package is absent. - **Evidence against:** Agent files target the package's own ~/.goodvibes namespace and are copied only if absent., Downloaded binary is SHA-256 checked against the fetched manifest., Sandbox shell/network actions require explicit /sandbox qemu commands., No source evidence of credential exfiltration or foreign agent-config writes. ## Public findings ### 1.
