@promptctl/cc-candybar@1.174.7
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 entry point and CLI behavior match its stated Claude Code statusline purpose. The flagged process and inspector code supports local integration, and observed network calls target npm metadata and the project’s public pricing file.
Static reason
High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.; source matched previously finalized malicious package; routed for review
Trigger
Normal statusline invocation by Claude Code; setup and attach features are exposed through explicit commands or user choices.
Impact
No evidence of credential or project-data exfiltration, unsolicited account actions, or harmful install-time behavior.
Mechanism
Renders supplied statusline data, uses a local daemon, and fetches public npm metadata and the package’s pricing data. The flagged inspector feature uses a per-user Unix socket.
AI rationale
The package’s entry point and CLI behavior match its stated Claude Code statusline purpose. The flagged process and inspector code supports local integration, and observed network calls target npm metadata and the project’s public pricing file.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Clean at 94.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for AI clean decision
- The manifest exposes a statusline CLI and declares a prepublishOnly build/check script; it has no install, preinstall, or postinstall hook.
- The CLI handles install as a named subcommand; its default path expects Claude Code statusline input and outputs formatted statusline data.
- The pricing fetch targets the package’s own public pricing file on raw.githubusercontent.com.
- The observed npm registry request targets registry.npmjs.org for package metadata.
- The attach feature documents use of a per-user Unix socket for its inspector connection.
