AI Security Review
scanned 12d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe manifest has no npm lifecycle hook, and the reviewed agent configuration and skill writes are reachable through explicit CLI commands. The inspected configuration and process inspection behavior supports a clean verdict rather than a confirmed attack.
Static reason
No blocking static signals were detected.; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source
Trigger
An operator explicitly runs the setup or skills command.
Impact
These actions change agent configuration or skill files only after an operator invokes the corresponding command; no confirmed attack surface was established.
Mechanism
Setup fetches and merges package configuration into a selected agent config; the skills command copies bundled package skills. No npm install hook triggers these actions.
AI rationale
The manifest has no npm lifecycle hook, and the reviewed agent configuration and skill writes are reachable through explicit CLI commands. The inspected configuration and process inspection behavior supports a clean verdict rather than a confirmed attack.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Clean at 91.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for AI clean decision
- package.json exposes server and setup commands and lists no preinstall, install, or postinstall hook.
- The setup command writes configuration only when explicitly invoked with --install-config and a client plus install token; config targets are named agent configuration files.
- The skills command copies this package's bundled skills into the user-selected or default skills directory when invoked.
- The configuration source reads environment-provided configuration and describes its origin; the cited location explains configuration precedence.
- The server process-list command is a bounded process inspection with a short timeout and buffer limit.
