AI Security Review
scanned 5d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiSource inspection found no npm install lifecycle hook. The flagged agent configuration and skill operations require explicit commands, and credential-bearing setup checks target the configured WordPress site; no concrete attack behavior was identified.
Static reason
No blocking static signals were detected.; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source
Trigger
A user runs the setup or install-skills command, or invokes server diagnostics.
Impact
No unauthorized credential transfer, lifecycle mutation, or agent-control change was established.
Mechanism
Setup sends credentials to the configured WordPress site; optional agent configuration setup requires an explicit client and install token. Skill files are copied by a separate command, and existing skill files are skipped unless forced.
AI rationale
Source inspection found no npm install lifecycle hook. The flagged agent configuration and skill operations require explicit commands, and credential-bearing setup checks target the configured WordPress site; no concrete attack behavior was identified.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Clean at 94.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for AI clean decision
- The manifest lists command scripts and no preinstall, install, or postinstall hook.
- The configuration module uses local filesystem and path APIs; the flagged configuration excerpt is explanatory commentary about precedence.
- Skill installation is a separate command that copies bundled files, skips existing files by default, and accepts an explicit destination.
- Agent configuration setup requires an explicit --install-config command, a supported client, and an install token; it fetches from the configured Respira website and merges the named server entry.
- Setup connection checks send the supplied site API key and optional basic-auth credentials to endpoints formed from the entered or saved WordPress site URL.
- Doctor version checking contacts the npm registry; the server process scan reads process listings, and chat hygiene removes control characters and terminal sequences.
