## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 17 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:** 1.166.3
- **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 package exposes a statusline CLI and has no install-time hook. The reviewed network requests serve registry and package pricing functions, and setup actions are behind explicit commands; the scanner’s reported combinations do not establish exfiltration or unrelated automatic behavior.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 83.0%
- **Started:** 2026-10-30T17:06:31.445Z
- **Finished:** 2026-10-30T17:07:04.326Z
- **Download time:** 1285 ms
- **Static scan time:** 2192 ms
- **AI review time:** 29402 ms
- **Total time:** 32881 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; the package provides a Claude Code statusline CLI with explicit setup commands.

- **Trigger:** Importing the CLI launcher loads the bundle; setup and other actions require invoking their commands.

- **Impact:** No evidence found of automatic credential collection, command-output exfiltration, or unrelated actions.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-30T17:07:04.326Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The reviewed network requests retrieve registry or package pricing data. Filesystem changes are part of the explicit install/setup flow.

- **Rationale:** The package exposes a statusline CLI and has no install-time hook. The reviewed network requests serve registry and package pricing functions, and setup actions are behind explicit commands; the scanner’s reported combinations do not establish exfiltration or unrelated automatic behavior.

- **Files touched:** package.json, bin/cc-candybar, dist/index.mjs

- **Network endpoints:** registry.npmjs.org, raw.githubusercontent.com/promptctl/cc-candybar/main/pricing.json

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 83.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The manifest points to a CLI entry point and has no install, preinstall, or postinstall hook; its prepublishOnly script is for publishing., The launcher dynamically imports the package bundle, whose commands are dispatched when invoked., The bundle’s outbound requests are for npm registry metadata and the package’s GitHub pricing data.

- **Evidence against:** The bundle uses environment variables, filesystem access, and child processes to support its statusline, daemon, and setup features., The user-run install command can stage files and update Claude settings.

## Affected versions and remediation
