## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 18 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:** 1.171.0
- **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 lifecycle script is a maintainer-only prepublish check, while setup and session attachment require user action. The bundle contains a proposal-goal gate splice, but the active attach path filters for seams with an attach action and does not apply that splice.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 93.0%
- **Started:** 2026-11-01T00:19:41.321Z
- **Finished:** 2026-11-01T00:21:05.994Z
- **Download time:** 765 ms
- **Static scan time:** 2831 ms
- **AI review time:** 81076 ms
- **Total time:** 84673 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 identified; the observed process, network, and file operations support statusline rendering and explicit setup.

- **Trigger:** Installation requires running the install command; the attach launcher is selected through the statusline animation control. Pricing data is fetched when the pricing feature needs it.

- **Impact:** No unauthorized data transfer, account action, or active change to Claude Code capabilities was identified.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-11-01T00:21:05.994Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The package stages its runtime and statusline configuration, gathers data for the bar, and uses a local attach path for animation. The separate propose-goal splice is not selected by that attach path.

- **Rationale:** The lifecycle script is a maintainer-only prepublish check, while setup and session attachment require user action. The bundle contains a proposal-goal gate splice, but the active attach path filters for seams with an attach action and does not apply that splice.

- **Files touched:** ~/.claude/settings.json, ~/Library/Application Support/CCCandybar/, $XDG\_DATA\_HOME/cc-candybar/, /tmp/cc-extra-attach-\*

- **Network endpoints:** registry.npmjs.org, raw.githubusercontent.com

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 93.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The only lifecycle script is prepublishOnly, which runs maintainer build and validation commands., The README describes the package as a Claude Code statusline renderer and explains its normal daemon and rendering behavior., Statusline animation is offered as a user-selected control that restarts the current session under the attach launcher., Although the bundle contains a propose-goal gate splice, the active attach path resolves only seams with an attach action; the propose-goal seam has none, so that launcher does not apply it.

## Affected versions and remediation
