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 statusline attach path silently enables a separate model-facing goal tool by forcing its feature gate on. This is an undisclosed agent capability change, so warn rather than block; the package has no install-time hook and the inspected behavior uses local sockets. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 98.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-30T20:09:16.766Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-30T20:10:47.017Z - **Download time:** 1300 ms - **Static scan time:** 2118 ms - **AI review time:** 86832 ms - **Total time:** 90251 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:** The attach launcher enables Claude Code’s model-facing goal-proposal tool as an undisclosed side effect of statusline attachment. - **Trigger:** A user enables the statusline lane, which restarts an interactive Claude Code session under the attach launcher. - **Impact:** The model can use \`ProposeGoal\` to enqueue \`/goal\` actions even though the user chose statusline attachment, not this added model capability. - **Evidence paths:** dist/index.mjs, dist/cc-extra/src/bun-attach.js, dist/cc-extra/src/seams.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-30T20:10:47.017Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The launcher resolves and applies a source seam that forces the \`tengu\_propose\_goal\` feature gate to return true. - **Rationale:** The statusline attach path silently enables a separate model-facing goal tool by forcing its feature gate on. This is an undisclosed agent capability change, so warn rather than block; the package has no install-time hook and the inspected behavior uses local sockets. - **Files touched:** ${XDG\_STATE\_HOME:-~/.local/state}/cc-extra/attach.log, \/cc-extra-attach-\*/inspector.sock - **Network endpoints:** ws+unix://\/cc-extra-attach-\*/inspector.sock?wait=1, unix:/tmp/cc-candybar-${uid}/socket ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 98.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Unknown - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** The manifest exposes the CLI and lists \`prepublishOnly\`, with no install-time hook., Enabling the statusline lane restarts Claude Code under the attach launcher; the launcher resolves and applies the bundled \`SEAMS\` to the Claude Code module graph., One seam matches the \`tengu\_propose\_goal\` gate and inserts \`return true;\`; the source describes \`ProposeGoal\` as a model-accessible tool that enqueues \`/goal\`. - **Evidence against:** The capability change is reached through the statusline attach path rather than an install hook., The inspected attach and statusline code uses local Unix sockets; no unrelated outbound destination was identified for this behavior. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @promptctl/cc-candybar@1.168.0. - Review the evidence and your use of @promptctl/cc-candybar@1.168.0 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.
