AI Security Review
scanned 11d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe manifest declares no install lifecycle hook, and the inspected agent configuration and skill writes are activated through explicit CLI commands. The cited network request is a documentation search, while the inspected chat hygiene code redacts credential-like content; no concrete attack behavior was established.
Static reason
No blocking static signals were detected.; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source
Trigger
Running the setup or skill-install CLI, or using the MCP server.
Impact
These inspected behaviors do not establish unauthorized control of agent settings, credential exposure, or another concrete attack surface.
Mechanism
Setup writes package or selected client configuration; the skill command copies bundled skills. The inspected server request queries documentation using a configurable base URL.
AI rationale
The manifest declares no install lifecycle hook, and the inspected agent configuration and skill writes are activated through explicit CLI commands. The cited network request is a documentation search, while the inspected chat hygiene code redacts credential-like content; no concrete attack behavior was established.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Clean at 89.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for AI clean decision
- package.json exposes setup and skill installation as CLI binaries; no install lifecycle hook is declared.
- The configuration file is written as package configuration, and the flagged configuration precedence concerns the package's own settings.
- Skill installation parses explicit command-line arguments and copies bundled skills only when the CLI is run.
- Agent client configuration is installed through an explicit command requiring a selected client; the setup code merges configuration into that client's config file.
- Chat hygiene redacts credential-like content before it is returned.
- The inspected server network call uses a configurable base URL for documentation search and sends a search query; no credential forwarding is shown.
