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. LPM treats this as warn-only first-party agent extension lifecycle risk. Npm postinstall installs all bundled skills into the user's global agent skill location and removes two legacy skill directories. It also downloads a checked release binary and reports installation metadata. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 90.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-13T05:43:27.600Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-13T05:44:25.315Z - **Download time:** 779 ms - **Static scan time:** 650 ms - **AI review time:** 56285 ms - **Total time:** 57715 ms 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:** Npm postinstall installs all bundled skills into the user's global agent skill location and removes two legacy skill directories. It also downloads a checked release binary and reports installation metadata. - **Trigger:** Installing the package through npm. - **Impact:** It mutates a global AI-agent extension surface without an explicit setup command; the inspected source does not show credential theft or remote payload execution beyond the downloaded CLI binary. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/install.js, scripts/skills.js, scripts/telemetry.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-13T05:44:25.315Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Automatic global agent-skill registration during postinstall. - **Rationale:** The source establishes an automatic global agent-extension installation path, which is a concrete lifecycle risk. The source does not establish the broader hostile behavior needed for a publish block. - **Files touched:** bin/pippit-tool-cli, ~/.agents/skills/pippit-short-drama-skill, ~/.agents/skills/xyq-nest-skill - **Network endpoints:** github.com, xyq.jianying.com ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 90.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for warning:** Installation automatically invokes a global skill installer for every bundled skill., The installer invokes an external skill command with global scope and then deletes legacy global skill directories., Postinstall also downloads and executes a release binary, then sends installation telemetry. - **Evidence against:** The downloaded archive is checked against a packaged SHA-256 checksum before extraction., No runtime dependency on this package itself appears in package.json, and the canvas launcher uses a fixed local module path. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @pippit-dev/cli@1.0.20. - Review the evidence and your use of @pippit-dev/cli@1.0.20 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. ## Public findings ### 1.
