@promptctl/cc-candybar@1.168.1
Statusline renderer for Claude Code — a JSON5-configurable DSL with daemon-cached data sources, byte-clean palette-aware composition, and OSC8 click verbs.
AI Security Review
scanned 5d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe package's automatic behavior supports its statusline and daemon purpose, and the inspected network requests target the npm registry and the publisher's pricing file. Settings changes occur through the explicit install command; no install-time data collection, credential exfiltration, or unrelated account action was found.
Static reason
High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.
Trigger
The CLI runs when invoked as a statusline command or with a selected subcommand.
Impact
No unauthorized collection, credential transfer, or harmful default action was identified.
Mechanism
It reads statusline input and uses local commands and files; network access is for npm registry checks and package pricing.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Clean at 92.0% confidence as Benign with medium false-positive risk.
Evidence for AI clean decision
- The only lifecycle script is prepublishOnly, which runs publisher checks and a build.
- The CLI is designed to read Claude Code statusline input from stdin and render formatted output.
- The inspected network requests target npm registry metadata and the package's own public pricing file.
- The daemon checks for updates in the background, while applying an update is a separate explicit action.
- The flagged BOM character appears as whitespace in bundled parser code; searches found no bidi control characters.
Evidence against
- The bundle imports child_process and runs local commands, consistent with its statusline, diagnostics, and daemon features.
- The explicit install command updates Claude Code settings and contacts the npm registry.
- The daemon performs periodic update checks and the renderer can fetch pricing data from GitHub.
