AI Security Review
scanned 12d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe manifest exposes commands but no install lifecycle hook. Inspected configuration and skill writes are command-triggered and scoped to Respira’s client entry or bundled skills; no concrete attack behavior was found.
Static reason
No blocking static signals were detected.; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source
Trigger
A user explicitly runs the setup installer with a client and token, or runs the standalone skills installer.
Impact
These actions configure the package for the user. No unconsented install-time mutation or unrelated agent control-surface change was established.
Mechanism
Setup merges the Respira server entry into a selected client config; the skills command copies bundled skill files. Server redemption stores merged WordPress site settings in the Respira config file.
AI rationale
The manifest exposes commands but no install lifecycle hook. Inspected configuration and skill writes are command-triggered and scoped to Respira’s client entry or bundled skills; no concrete attack behavior was found.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Clean at 92.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for AI clean decision
- package.json defines the server and setup command entrypoints; it has no install lifecycle hook.
- The config.js target is diagnostic comment text about configuration precedence, not a write operation.
- The standalone skills command defaults to the user’s Claude skills directory and copies bundled skill files when invoked.
- The setup command accepts an explicit install-config option and requires a client and install token.
- Setup targets named client configuration files and merges the Respira server entry into existing configuration.
- Server redemption writes merged site configuration to the configured Respira config file.
