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. The package's explicit setup command changes global OpenCode settings and registers external agent integrations, which is broader than configuring this package alone. The reviewed install hooks do not exfiltrate data, and monitor reporting is disabled unless the user configures an endpoint. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 78.0% - **Started:** 2026-11-01T15:18:47.994Z - **Finished:** 2026-11-01T15:20:32.215Z - **Download time:** 1040 ms - **Static scan time:** 968 ms - **AI review time:** 102211 ms - **Total time:** 104221 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 malicious activity identified; the explicit setup command makes broad changes to global OpenCode settings. - **Trigger:** A user runs \`npm run setup\` or directly invokes scripts/setup-stack.js. - **Impact:** These changes expand or alter the user's agent plugins and integrations at the global configuration level. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/setup-stack.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-11-01T15:20:32.215Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The script registers a third-party plugin, adds this MCP server to OpenCode configuration, and initializes RTK's global OpenCode integration. - **Rationale:** The package's explicit setup command changes global OpenCode settings and registers external agent integrations, which is broader than configuring this package alone. The reviewed install hooks do not exfiltrate data, and monitor reporting is disabled unless the user configures an endpoint. - **Files touched:** configDir/opencode.json, configDir/plugins/, configDir/secrets/opencode-backup-{timestamp}.json, targetProjectRoot/AGENTS.md - **Network endpoints:** https://github.com/obra/superpowers.git, https://opencode.ai/config.json, DEVWF\_MONITOR\_URL (user-configured; /api/session and /api/event) ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 78.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Unknown - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** The setup command modifies the global OpenCode configuration., Setup registers the Superpowers plugin from GitHub., Setup runs RTK initialization with global OpenCode options., The setup routine runs when its script is invoked directly, including through the package's \`setup\` command. - **Evidence against:** The broad configuration changes require an explicit setup command; they are not performed by the package's import or install hooks., The postinstall hook creates a local workflow state file and does not send data., Runtime monitor reporting is disabled unless the user sets DEVWF\_MONITOR\_URL. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @programinglive/dev-workflow-mcp-server@1.19.3. - Review the evidence and your use of @programinglive/dev-workflow-mcp-server@1.19.3 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.
