## 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:** 0.2.402
- **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 hooks, and inspected excerpts do not verify an attack. The required native executable analysis is limited and leaves material behavior unresolved, so this package needs manual review.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Manual Review
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 78.0%
- **Started:** 2026-10-18T17:53:46.246Z

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 identified in the inspected source. The required analysis of the shipped executable is bounded, so its remaining behavior could not be resolved.

- **Trigger:** Unknown; the available executable analysis does not establish which embedded code is reachable.

- **Impact:** No attack impact is established by the inspected evidence; executable behavior remains unresolved.

- **Evidence paths:** .lpm-inspection-kiOfeC/0-9e8d12a1d02b.txt

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-18T17:54:33.263Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The package includes a large native executable whose offline analysis covers bounded embedded source windows and cannot establish the full loader behavior.

- **Rationale:** The manifest has no lifecycle hooks, and inspected excerpts do not verify an attack. The required native executable analysis is limited and leaves material behavior unresolved, so this package needs manual review.

- **Files touched:** bin/reason.exe, bin/runtime/srt/sandbox-runtime.mjs

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Manual Review

- **Confidence:** 78.0%

- **Recommended action:** manual\_review

- **Intent class:** Unknown

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **AI review observations:** package.json identifies a Windows ARM64 native CLI package and declares no lifecycle scripts., The flagged JavaScript excerpt covers file-pattern handling; it does not show a write to agent configuration., Offline analysis of the executable shows an MCP URL check restricted to named Reason service origins and the expected endpoint path., The executable analysis is limited and explicitly cannot establish loader reachability or rule out other native behavior.

- **Evidence against:** The inspected manifest has no install-time hook, and the available excerpts establish no concrete attack behavior.

## Affected versions and remediation
