## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 12 low-signal pattern(s) reviewed.

- **Verdict:** Manual Review
- **Product-default install policy:** Allow
- **Firewall policy:** No policy match
- **Public report status:** Under Review
- **Threat category:** Unknown
- **Selected version:** 0.2.382
- **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: manual review; recommendation: manual review. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The manifest has no lifecycle hook, and the flagged agent paths appear in sandbox path handling. The behavior of \`bin/ara\` remains materially unresolved from bounded analysis, so manual review is appropriate.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Manual Review
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 88.0%

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 concrete attack behavior was established. The shipped native executable has unresolved behavior because its static analysis covers only bounded embedded source windows.

- **Trigger:** No specific triggering action was verified for the unresolved native behavior.

- **Impact:** No attack impact was confirmed; the executable's remaining behavior is unresolved.

- **Evidence paths:** bin/ara, .lpm-inspection-eJ78jF/0-ae84c2573fe8.txt

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-18T07:07:16.912Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The offline analysis does not establish whether all embedded code is reachable or what other native behavior exists.

- **Rationale:** The manifest has no lifecycle hook, and the flagged agent paths appear in sandbox path handling. The behavior of \`bin/ara\` remains materially unresolved from bounded analysis, so manual review is appropriate.

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Manual Review

- **Confidence:** 88.0%

- **Recommended action:** manual\_review

- **Intent class:** Unknown

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **AI review observations:** The offline analysis identifies \`bin/ara\` as a Mach-O executable and says its bounded source windows cannot resolve all native behavior.

- **Evidence against:** The manifest contains no lifecycle hook declaration., The flagged agent paths are included in sandbox path handling and search globs; this does not establish agent configuration mutation.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to @reason-machines/cli-darwin-arm64@0.2.382.

- Review the evidence and your use of @reason-machines/cli-darwin-arm64@0.2.382 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.
