## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 20 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:** 1.175.0
- **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 manifest has no install-time lifecycle hook, and the reviewed execution paths are associated with the CLI, statusline, and user-invoked setup or hosted-session features. The static scanner’s capability flags did not establish an automatic exfiltration or unrelated execution path.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 82.0%
- **Started:** 2026-11-01T08:46:54.633Z
- **Finished:** 2026-11-01T08:47:29.999Z
- **Download time:** 517 ms
- **Static scan time:** 2175 ms
- **AI review time:** 32672 ms
- **Total time:** 35366 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 was identified; the reviewed process, network, and file operations align with the package’s CLI, statusline, and explicitly invoked setup functions.

- **Trigger:** The CLI performs setup when the user runs the install command; the attach launcher runs when a user starts a hosted Claude Code session.

- **Impact:** No malicious impact identified in the inspected source.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-11-01T08:47:29.999Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The inspected paths stage runtime files, launch Claude Code, and use package-related registry or pricing services. No source evidence showed automatic collection or transmission of credentials or command output.

- **Rationale:** The manifest has no install-time lifecycle hook, and the reviewed execution paths are associated with the CLI, statusline, and user-invoked setup or hosted-session features. The static scanner’s capability flags did not establish an automatic exfiltration or unrelated execution path.

- **Network endpoints:** https://registry.npmjs.org, https://raw.githubusercontent.com/promptctl/cc-candybar/main/pricing.json

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 82.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The package exposes a Node entrypoint and CLI; its only lifecycle script is prepublishOnly, which runs during publishing rather than registry installation., The attach launcher is described as starting Claude Code for a user who opts into a hosted session., The install command stages the runtime when explicitly invoked; the entrypoint dispatches install and other named commands.

- **Evidence against:** The bundle includes process execution, environment access, and network requests, but the reviewed paths point to CLI and statusline functionality., The flagged attach code uses a per-user state directory for its log.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to @promptctl/cc-candybar@1.175.0.

- Review the evidence and your use of @promptctl/cc-candybar@1.175.0 before allowing it. Restrict the permissions described in this report.
- Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe.
