@promptctl/cc-candybar@1.170.1
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 4d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe package’s runtime process, filesystem, and network capabilities support its stated statusline and daemon functions. Its only lifecycle script is a publisher-side build/check script, and the reviewed network destinations are the npm registry and the project’s own pricing file.
Static reason
High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.
Trigger
The CLI runs when invoked; prepublishOnly runs during publishing, not ordinary registry installation.
Impact
No malicious data collection, credential theft, or unrelated code execution was established.
Mechanism
The bundle uses local process and filesystem operations and contacts the npm registry and the project’s GitHub pricing file for package-related functions.
AI rationale

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Clean at 88.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for AI clean decision
- The package describes itself as a Claude Code statusline renderer and exposes a CLI that imports its bundled entry point.
- The only lifecycle script is prepublishOnly, which runs release checks and builds; there is no install hook.
- The bundle uses the npm registry for package-related operations and fetches pricing data from the project’s GitHub repository.
Evidence against
- The bundle includes process execution, filesystem access, and network calls, but these are consistent with a CLI that reads project and session state and manages its daemon.
- No outbound request to an unrelated collector or automatic transmission of credentials or command output was identified.
