## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 18 low-signal pattern(s) reviewed.

- **Verdict:** Clean
- **Product-default install policy:** Allow
- **Firewall policy:** No policy match
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** None published
- **Selected version:** 1.19.19
- **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: clean; recommendation: mark clean. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The lifecycle behavior initializes the workflow state file this package is designed to manage, and the prepare hook skips outside a Git checkout. Optional monitoring requires a configured destination; agent setup and token rotation are explicit operations, so the scanner findings do not establish malicious behavior.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 93.0%
- **Started:** 2026-11-01T22:07:03.077Z
- **Finished:** 2026-11-01T22:07:53.095Z
- **Download time:** 780 ms
- **Static scan time:** 948 ms
- **AI review time:** 48288 ms
- **Total time:** 50018 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 identified; install behavior and optional monitoring fit the workflow-server purpose.

- **Trigger:** Postinstall initializes local workflow state; monitoring requires a configured DEVWF\_MONITOR\_URL; broader agent setup and token rotation require explicit commands.

- **Impact:** No automatic credential collection, unrelated network contact, or agent configuration change was identified.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-11-01T22:07:53.095Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The inspected code writes a local state file and sends workflow snapshots only to a user-configured monitor. Setup and token rotation are separate user-invoked operations.

- **Rationale:** The lifecycle behavior initializes the workflow state file this package is designed to manage, and the prepare hook skips outside a Git checkout. Optional monitoring requires a configured destination; agent setup and token rotation are explicit operations, so the scanner findings do not establish malicious behavior.

- **Files touched:** .state/workflow-state.json (created by postinstall if absent)

- **Network endpoints:** 100.107.65.21:3100/api/session (only in the explicitly applied token-rotation script)

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 93.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The postinstall creates only the package’s workflow state file under the invoking project’s \`.state\` directory, and leaves an existing file intact., The prepare script skips Husky setup when the package is not in a Git checkout., Monitoring sends no data unless \`DEVWF\_MONITOR\_URL\` is configured; its source describes the payload as workflow metadata and says file contents are not sent., Global OpenCode configuration and agent setup run through the separate setup command, which is guarded to run only when invoked directly.

- **Evidence against:** The package declares prepare and postinstall lifecycle scripts; postinstall writes a state file in the invoking project., The explicit setup command can install a plugin and modify global OpenCode configuration and project AGENTS.md., An added token-rotation shell script contacts a hard-coded private monitor address when run with an apply mode.
