## 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:** 0.17.0
- **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 lifecycle hook, and the agent configuration writes are reachable through explicit setup commands. The inspected behavior installs first-party DocNexus project-memory guidance and skills, with user consent required before memory capture.

## Latest scan

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 inspected agent integration links DocNexus skills and adds a marked memory block to the selected project instructions file.

- **Trigger:** A user runs \`docnexus skills link --target ...\` or selects an agent with \`docnexus init --agent ...\`.

- **Impact:** No malicious impact was established; the behavior sets up the package's project-memory feature for the selected agent.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-16T13:09:44.923Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The command links packaged DocNexus skills into the project's agent skills directory and adds DocNexus project-memory guidance to CLAUDE.md or AGENTS.md.

- **Rationale:** The manifest has no install lifecycle hook, and the agent configuration writes are reachable through explicit setup commands. The inspected behavior installs first-party DocNexus project-memory guidance and skills, with user consent required before memory capture.

- **Files touched:** CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md, .agents/skills, .claude/skills, docnexus/skills

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 94.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** package.json lists build, prepack, test, typecheck and evaluation scripts; it has no preinstall, install or postinstall hook., The agent-context code targets CLAUDE.md or AGENTS.md and adds a marked DocNexus project-memory block., That block directs agents to offer memory capture and says not to store it without user consent., The skills code places selected agent links in the project's .agents/skills or .claude/skills directory and links DocNexus skills., The CLI exposes linking through an explicit skills link command or optional init --agent selection.
