@promptctl/cc-candybar@1.180.7
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 2d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe package’s declared purpose and reachable attach behavior are consistent with statusline rendering and user-enabled animation. Although a source-splice seam would enable Claude Code’s proposed-goal gate, the shipped attach resolver excludes seams without an attach form.
Static reason
High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.; source matched previously finalized malicious package; routed for review
Trigger
The CLI runs when invoked; the attach launcher starts after the user turns on statusline animation.
Impact
No malicious impact identified. The proposed-goal patch is present in source but is not applied by the shipped attach path.
Mechanism
The attach path uses a debugger breakpoint for statusline updates. Its resolver filters out the proposed-goal seam, which lacks an attach form.
AI rationale
The package’s declared purpose and reachable attach behavior are consistent with statusline rendering and user-enabled animation. Although a source-splice seam would enable Claude Code’s proposed-goal gate, the shipped attach resolver excludes seams without an attach form.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Clean at 92.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for AI clean decision
- The package describes itself as a Claude Code statusline renderer; its only declared lifecycle script is prepublishOnly, which builds and checks the package.
- The statusline attach behavior is presented as an animation option that restarts Claude Code when the user turns it on.
- The shipped Bun attach launcher passes SEAMS to resolveBreakpoints; that resolver considers only seams with an attach form.
- The propose-goal seam has no attach form, so the shipped attach path does not apply its return-true patch.
Evidence against
- The source contains a separate propose-goal seam that would force Claude Code’s tengu_propose_goal gate to return true if a source-splice path applied it.
