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 lifecycle hook’s inspected effect is limited to initializing workflow state. The broader OpenCode and project-agent configuration changes belong to an explicit setup command, and the inspected sources did not establish malicious behavior. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 91.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-29T11:32:08.402Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-29T11:33:10.175Z - **Download time:** 520 ms - **Static scan time:** 380 ms - **AI review time:** 60871 ms - **Total time:** 61773 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:** No attack was identified in the inspected source. The install hook initializes workflow state, and agent configuration changes occur in the directly invoked setup command. - **Trigger:** Package installation triggers postinstall; the separate OpenCode setup runs only when its command is invoked. - **Impact:** No confirmed credential collection, unrelated data transfer, or unconsented agent-control mutation was found. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-29T11:33:10.175Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Postinstall creates a project-local state directory and file. The setup command registers the package’s local MCP server and plugins and creates AGENTS.md if absent. - **Rationale:** The lifecycle hook’s inspected effect is limited to initializing workflow state. The broader OpenCode and project-agent configuration changes belong to an explicit setup command, and the inspected sources did not establish malicious behavior. ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The manifest’s postinstall runs install.js, which creates only a project-local workflow state file and skips when the install directory is inside node\_modules., OpenCode and project-agent configuration changes are in a setup command that runs when directly invoked; it registers the local MCP server and plugins, and creates AGENTS.md only if absent., The runtime uses the MCP SDK over stdio; inspected dependency sources show protocol/transport code, dotenv configuration, and a native SQLite installer., The remaining flagged shell and child-process uses are tied to explicit setup, git-hook preparation, or bundle verification. - **Evidence against:** The package has postinstall and prepare lifecycle scripts, and setup-stack.js writes an AGENTS.md file and edits OpenCode configuration when its setup command is run., The inspected dependency manifests include a native SQLite install command; its source is prebuild installation or native compilation. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @programinglive/dev-workflow-mcp-server@1.11.0. - Review the evidence and your use of @programinglive/dev-workflow-mcp-server@1.11.0 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.
