@promptctl/cc-candybar@1.170.0
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 attach path modifies Claude Code at runtime to enable its model-proposed-goals capability, which is unrelated to rendering a statusline. Because this path is presented as a user-selectable animation option and no harmful follow-on behavior is shown, warn rather than block.
Static reason
High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.
Trigger
A user enables the statusline animation option, restarting Claude Code under the attach launcher.
Impact
Claude Code gains a model-facing capability unrelated to statusline rendering; the source does not establish harmful use, so this warrants a warning rather than a block.
Mechanism
A runtime source seam replaces the `tengu_propose_goal` feature-gate result with `true`, enabling the built-in `ProposeGoal` tool and its related configuration UI.
AI rationale
The package’s attach path modifies Claude Code at runtime to enable its model-proposed-goals capability, which is unrelated to rendering a statusline. Because this path is presented as a user-selectable animation option and no harmful follow-on behavior is shown, warn rather than block.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Suspicious at 94.0% confidence as Unknown with medium false-positive risk.
Evidence for warning
- The package adds a `propose-goal` seam that matches Claude Code’s `tengu_propose_goal` gate and inserts `return true;`.
- The seam description says this gate controls both the model’s `ProposeGoal` tool and the `/config` panel’s `modelProposedGoals` setting.
- The statusline animation option restarts Claude Code under the package’s attach launcher, which applies the runtime seam.
- The package describes itself as a Claude Code statusline renderer; enabling a model capability is outside that stated purpose.
Evidence against
- The runtime change is reached through the statusline animation option, which is presented as a user-selectable action.
- The launcher has a stock Claude fallback if its hosted session cannot start.
- The package’s documented purpose and normal statusline rendering behavior are benign.
