The added entry causes agent clients to launch GraphFlow through npx. - **Trigger:** npm postinstall during package installation, when matching agent configuration files exist. - **Impact:** A package installation can persist an executable MCP server and behavioral instructions in existing coding-agent environments without an explicit setup command. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/safe-postinstall.cjs, dist/integrations/agent-mcp-installer.js, AGENTS.md - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-08T11:08:57.210Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Automatic MCP and agent-instruction injection into foreign agent control surfaces. - **Attack narrative:** The package registers postinstall. During a normal local installation, it examines the consumer workspace for existing Cursor, VS Code, or Opencode MCP configuration and inserts a GraphFlow server entry that runs npx with this package. Its installer also detects supported user-level agent configurations and injects MCP registrations. The bundled AGENTS.md then directs coding agents to use GraphFlow and report outcomes. This is unconsented install-time mutation of broad foreign AI-agent control surfaces. - **Rationale:** The automatic lifecycle hook modifies existing agent configurations and installs a package-controlled MCP command without an explicit user setup action. This meets the install-hook abuse blocking boundary. - **Files touched:** scripts/safe-postinstall.cjs, dist/integrations/agent-mcp-installer.js, .cursor/mcp.json, .vscode/mcp.json, .opencode/opencode.json, ~/.claude.json ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for block:** The manifest runs a postinstall script automatically., On ordinary local installation, the script detects existing workspace agent configs and modifies them., It inserts an enabled MCP entry that invokes this package through npx., The installer targets detected user-level agent configuration files and writes MCP registrations., Bundled agent instructions direct Claude Code to invoke GraphFlow and report outcomes. - **Evidence against:** No runtime dependency on this package itself is declared., The inspected lifecycle code did not show credential collection or direct data exfiltration. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @roarpeng/graphflow@1.15.5. - Avoid installing @roarpeng/graphflow@1.15.5. Remove it from direct dependencies and check your lockfile for transitive copies. - Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe. - If this version ran, investigate the affected machine and build environment. Rotate credentials it could access and rebuild from a trusted environment. ## Public findings ### 1.
