## 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:** 0.2.460
- **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 install lifecycle scripts, and the inspected runtime excerpt shows agent configuration paths among protected paths. The main native executable’s behavior remains materially unresolved, so the source evidence does not support a clean or malicious verdict.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Manual Review
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 87.0%

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 was established from the inspected source. The native CLI executable remains unresolved because its offline analysis covers only bounded embedded-source windows.

- **Trigger:** Running the packaged bin/reason executable.

- **Impact:** The executable’s effects cannot be determined from the available inspection.

- **Evidence paths:** .lpm-inspection-U47rgz/0-c6166ba60af8.txt

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-20T00:35:19.384Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The available analysis does not establish loader reachability or account for all native behavior.

- **Rationale:** The manifest has no install lifecycle scripts, and the inspected runtime excerpt shows agent configuration paths among protected paths. The main native executable’s behavior remains materially unresolved, so the source evidence does not support a clean or malicious verdict.

- **Files touched:** bin/reason

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Manual Review

- **Confidence:** 87.0%

- **Recommended action:** manual\_review

- **Intent class:** Unknown

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **AI review observations:** The verified offline analysis identifies bin/reason as a 78 MB Mach-O executable, but its bounded embedded-source windows cannot establish what code runs or exclude other native behavior., The inspected runtime bundle includes protected agent configuration paths such as .mcp.json and .claude/commands; this does not resolve the native executable’s behavior.

- **Evidence against:** package.json contains no lifecycle scripts and describes a darwin-x64 native CLI package.

## Affected versions and remediation

```text
Analysis describes bytes, not a verdict. Trace source callers.
limitations=["Bounded embedded source windows do not prove loader/bytecode reachability or absence of other native behavior; trace activation and actual sends before deciding"]
