## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 12 low-signal pattern(s) reviewed.

- **Verdict:** Clean
- **Product-default install policy:** Allow
- **Firewall policy:** No policy match
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** None published
- **Selected version:** 0.0.192-prod.1790782151911.gb0e03488e305bcb4da332fd718062b0a82d2bbc3
- **Selected version is latest:** No
- **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai)

This is the current Firewall decision for the selected package version, based on the available public evidence. 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.

The inspected execution and network primitives implement the package's browser automation function and activate through explicit CLI configuration. No concrete malicious behavior was established in the inspected source.

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 confirmed attack surface was identified. Browser control, page JavaScript execution, and relay communication are consistent with the explicitly started browser service.

- **Trigger:** The user runs the start command or supplies an absolute private keeper configuration.

- **Impact:** Requested actions can read and modify browser pages and create downloads; inspection found no covert harvesting, unrelated recipient, or agent control-surface mutation.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-09-30T15:38:45.000Z

### AI review details

- **Review stage:** source\_first\_review

- **Mechanism:** The service launches a separate Chrome profile and processes browser actions through an authenticated relay or configured local keeper.

- **Rationale:** The inspected execution and network primitives implement the package's browser automation function and activate through explicit CLI configuration. No concrete malicious behavior was established in the inspected source.

- **Network endpoints:** https://r5d.dev, 127.0.0.1

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 91.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** package.json has no install lifecycle hooks or runtime self-dependency; its dependencies support browser automation., main.mjs starts the personal browser service through the explicit start command., chrome-launcher.mjs restricts debugging to loopback and rejects Chrome's daily-driver profile., browser-runtime.mjs executes supplied JavaScript inside the browser page as a requested run\_js action., personal-main.mjs authenticates to the configured HTTPS service using an r5d credential and rejects redirects.
