Broad AI-agent control-surface hijack and potential unprompted agent actions. - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Product-default install policy:** Block - **Firewall policy:** Warn by default - **Public report status:** Published - **Threat category:** Soft block: AI-agent control surface - **Selected version:** 0.10.2 - **Selected version is latest:** Yes - **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai) LPM flags this version as an AI-agent control-surface risk. Installation mutates the user's global Claude Code skill directory. The injected instructions influence agent behavior in every folder and can direct collaboration actions. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Started:** 2026-07-30T12:56:29.289Z - **Finished:** 2026-07-30T12:57:02.646Z - **Download time:** 756 ms - **Static scan time:** 871 ms - **AI review time:** 31728 ms - **Total time:** 33357 ms ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** Installation mutates the user's global Claude Code skill directory. The injected instructions influence agent behavior in every folder and can direct collaboration actions. - **Trigger:** npm postinstall when ~/.claude exists and RIG\_SKIP\_SKILL\_INSTALL is unset. - **Impact:** Broad AI-agent control-surface hijack and potential unprompted agent actions. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, bin/postinstall.mjs - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-07-30T12:57:02.646Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Unconsented global AI-agent skill installation. - **Attack narrative:** On installation, the package silently creates ~/.claude/skills/rig/SKILL.md. That user-level Claude Code skill declares broad triggers beyond explicit rig use and instructs the agent to run rig/tapd commands and perform collaboration behavior. This is an unconsented postinstall mutation of a foreign, global AI-agent control surface. - **Rationale:** Source inspection confirms a postinstall hook writes a persistent global Claude Code instruction file. The guards and opt-out do not establish user consent for this broad control-surface modification. - **Files touched:** bin/postinstall.mjs, ~/.claude/skills/rig/SKILL.md ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** package.json runs postinstall., bin/postinstall.mjs writes ~/.claude/skills/rig/SKILL.md., The postinstall creates a user-level Claude Code skill without consent., Injected skill broadly triggers on reviews/discussion and directs agent tool use/network posting. - **Evidence against:** It skips hosts without ~/.claude and honors RIG\_SKIP\_SKILL\_INSTALL=1., The write is version-idempotent and has no postinstall network request. ## Public findings ### 1.
