## 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:** 0.0.195-prod.1792322359101.g93e68dd3813127082cc4f2d0d76e3e77260746b9
- **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 manifest has no install hook, and the flagged evaluation is part of an explicit browser action that runs supplied code in the selected page. The launcher’s inspected network behavior is limited to local Chrome debugging, so the scanner’s evaluation and download labels do not establish a package-controlled attack.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 91.0%
- **Started:** 2026-10-18T11:28:54.102Z

- **Download time:** 780 ms
- **Static scan time:** 524 ms
- **AI review time:** 49529 ms
- **Total time:** 50834 ms

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 package-controlled attack was identified. The package provides browser automation, including a caller-invoked page scripting action.

- **Trigger:** A consumer invokes the CLI or requests a browser action.

- **Impact:** The page can be changed by requested browser actions, but the inspected source does not establish an independent malicious action or remote payload execution.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-18T11:29:44.936Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The launcher starts Chrome and checks its loopback debugging endpoint; run\_js evaluates supplied code in the selected page after requiring mutate intent and a reason.

- **Rationale:** The manifest has no install hook, and the flagged evaluation is part of an explicit browser action that runs supplied code in the selected page. The launcher’s inspected network behavior is limited to local Chrome debugging, so the scanner’s evaluation and download labels do not establish a package-controlled attack.

- **Files touched:** package.json, dist/mjs/main.mjs, dist/mjs/navigation-observer.mjs, dist/mjs/chrome-launcher.mjs, dist/mjs/browser-runtime.mjs, dist/mjs/browser-control-input.mjs

- **Network endpoints:** 127.0.0.1

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 91.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The manifest points package imports and its CLI binary to dist/mjs/main.mjs; the complete manifest has no install lifecycle hook., The launcher checks Chrome's local debugging endpoint and starts the selected Chrome executable., The navigation observer matches a supplied URL pattern and watches navigation events on the page., The run\_js action executes supplied code in the selected page; its input requires mutate intent and a reason.

- **Evidence against:** The flagged code evaluation is an explicit browser action, not an install-time payload., The launcher’s inspected network request targets 127.0.0.1; no remote code download was found in that file.
