## 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:** 0.2.452
- **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 and inspected runtime excerpt do not establish an attack, but the package ships native components whose behavior could not be resolved by the available analyses. Manual review is needed to determine whether those executables are safe.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Manual Review
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 96.0%

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 attack was confirmed from the inspected source. Shipped native executables and libraries remain unresolved because available offline analyses could not establish their behavior.

- **Trigger:** Launching the CLI or its packaged background components.

- **Impact:** Unknown; static inspection did not establish whether these native components perform harmful actions.

- **Evidence paths:** .lpm-inspection-ayk092/0-2c45d11d3ff3.txt, .lpm-inspection-ayk092/1-c2d116039a25.txt, .lpm-inspection-ayk092/2-10bf8d47fa8e.txt, .lpm-inspection-ayk092/3-3e9028311a7f.txt

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-19T20:53:15.590Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The main executable has only bounded embedded-source analysis; three other native artifacts were unrecognized by the available analysis.

- **Rationale:** The manifest and inspected runtime excerpt do not establish an attack, but the package ships native components whose behavior could not be resolved by the available analyses. Manual review is needed to determine whether those executables are safe.

- **Files touched:** bin/reason, bin/Background/Reason.app/Contents/MacOS/ReasonBackgroundIdentity, bin/Background/Reason.app/Contents/Helpers/ReasonPermissionTile, bin/libreason\_device\_keychain.dylib

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Manual Review

- **Confidence:** 96.0%

- **Recommended action:** manual\_review

- **Intent class:** Unknown

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **AI review observations:** The manifest identifies a macOS x64 CLI package and contains no lifecycle script., The flagged runtime location lists project configuration and agent-related paths; this excerpt alone does not establish a harmful write., Offline analysis of bin/reason is limited to embedded source candidates and cannot establish the executable's full behavior., Offline analyses could not identify or resolve the behavior of the shipped background identity executable, permission helper, or keychain library.

- **Evidence against:** The package manifest lists platform and file metadata but no install lifecycle hook.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to @reason-machines/cli-darwin-x64@0.2.452.

- Review the evidence and your use of @reason-machines/cli-darwin-x64@0.2.452 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.
