Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions. AI assessment: clean; recommendation: mark clean. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. Source inspection found no install lifecycle hooks. Agent configuration writes and skill copies are reachable through explicit setup commands, and no concrete attack behavior was identified. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 93.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-11T04:12:51.150Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-11T04:13:15.683Z - **Download time:** 508 ms - **Static scan time:** 2050 ms - **AI review time:** 21973 ms - **Total time:** 24533 ms 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 identified. The inspected agent configuration and skill installation behavior is activated by explicit setup commands, and package.json declares no install lifecycle hooks. - **Trigger:** An operator explicitly runs the setup or install-skills command. - **Impact:** The reviewed behavior performs package-aligned setup and skill installation; no unconsented agent control-surface mutation or other attack was established. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-11T04:13:15.683Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The setup command merges Respira server configuration into a selected agent config; install-skills copies bundled skill files and skips existing files unless forced. - **Rationale:** Source inspection found no install lifecycle hooks. Agent configuration writes and skill copies are reachable through explicit setup commands, and no concrete attack behavior was identified. - **Files touched:** ~/.claude/skills, agent configuration files selected by setup ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 93.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** package.json identifies the requested WordPress MCP server and exposes its server and setup commands without install lifecycle hooks., dist/config.js target is explanatory comment text about configuration precedence; executable code nearby reads WordPress credentials and emits a configuration warning., dist/install-skills.js defaults to Claude skills directory, but copying bundled skills requires explicitly invoking its command; existing skills are skipped unless --force is provided., dist/setup.js writes agent configuration only through explicit --install-config or interactive --setup commands; the install-config branch requires a client and install token., dist/server.js describes an MCP server for interacting with WordPress sites. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @respira/wordpress-mcp-server@8.3.26. - Review the evidence and your use of @respira/wordpress-mcp-server@8.3.26 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. ## Public findings ### 1.

High: Previous Version Dangerous Delta - **Category:** Supply Chain - **Confidence:** 93.0% - **Path:** dist/server.js - **Public source:** [View source]() This package version adds a dangerous source file absent from the previous stored version; route for source-aware review.
