@promptctl/cc-candybar@1.179.0
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 2d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe manifest has no install-time lifecycle hook, and the flagged process execution is part of the tool's launch abstraction. Setup and daemon actions are dispatched by explicit CLI subcommands; the reviewed source did not show an automatic exfiltration or unrelated action.
Static reason
High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.; source matched previously finalized malicious package; routed for review
Trigger
Normal CLI invocation; installation and daemon setup require their respective explicit subcommands.
Impact
No malicious impact identified.
Mechanism
The package reads statusline input, launches configured tools, and provides explicit setup and daemon commands. No reviewed path showed credential or command-output exfiltration.
AI rationale
The manifest has no install-time lifecycle hook, and the flagged process execution is part of the tool's launch abstraction. Setup and daemon actions are dispatched by explicit CLI subcommands; the reviewed source did not show an automatic exfiltration or unrelated action.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Clean at 88.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for AI clean decision
- The only lifecycle script is prepublishOnly, which runs a version guard, checks, and a build.
- The bin shim imports the package's declared ESM entry point.
- The CLI dispatches install and daemon behavior through explicit subcommands; without a subcommand it processes Claude Code statusline input.
- The bundle's shell process launcher accepts a supplied program and arguments as part of its launch abstraction.
