## 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:** 0.0.194-prod.1792093869341.gddc1b0927266b466246210c6d41f02616bd2d636
- **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.

Source inspection found no lifecycle hook or independent malicious behavior. The scanner’s process and dynamic-code flags correspond to launching Chrome and the browser\_run\_js feature in the user-started client.

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 flagged process launch and page code execution support the browser client’s stated operation after the user starts it.

- **Trigger:** The user runs the browser client in start mode and connects it to the configured service.

- **Impact:** No separate unauthorized credential disclosure, remote payload download, or other attack effect was established.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-15T19:57:51.635Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The client sends its credential to the configured HTTPS origin, polls that relay for browser actions, and dispatches those actions in Chrome.

- **Rationale:** Source inspection found no lifecycle hook or independent malicious behavior. The scanner’s process and dynamic-code flags correspond to launching Chrome and the browser\_run\_js feature in the user-started client.

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

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 96.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The manifest points to the CLI entrypoint, whose start mode uses parsed command-line options to start the browser client., The client resolves its origin and credential from supplied flags, config, or environment, requires HTTPS, and sends the bearer token to that same origin for registration and relay requests., The relay returns browser actions for the client to dispatch; the flagged dynamic code execution runs within a page as the browser\_run\_js feature., The launcher starts the selected Chrome executable with generated launch arguments; the navigation observer handles page navigation events with a timeout.

- **Evidence against:** The source supports the flagged process launch and dynamic code execution as parts of the user-started browser client, and does not show a package downloader or an unrelated credential recipient.
