## 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:** 0.18.0
- **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 agent configuration changes are tied to explicit project setup or linking. The inspected writes are scoped to DocNexus project skills and a marked project instruction block, so the scanner hints do not establish an attack.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 96.0%
- **Started:** 2026-10-17T21:50:35.991Z

- **Static scan time:** 390 ms
- **AI review time:** 203530 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 attack was identified in the inspected source. Agent integration is project-local and activated through explicit setup options.

- **Trigger:** A user runs project initialization with an agent target or invokes the skills-link command; reset requires --force.

- **Impact:** No confirmed unauthorized control-surface change, credential transfer, or other attack was established.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-17T21:54:07.560Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The package links its own workspace skills and adds or refreshes a marked DocNexus block in the project instruction file. Reset checks for force and a DocNexus workspace marker.

- **Rationale:** The manifest has no install lifecycle hook, and agent configuration changes are tied to explicit project setup or linking. The inspected writes are scoped to DocNexus project skills and a marked project instruction block, so the scanner hints do not establish an attack.

- **Files touched:** package.json, dist/src/agent-context.js, dist/src/cli.js, dist/src/reset.js, dist/src/skills.js

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 96.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** package.json exposes the CLI and lists prepack as a build step; it has no install lifecycle hook., Agent skill links target project-local .agents/skills or .claude/skills directories., Agent context updates are reached through the skills-link path and replace or add only the marked DocNexus block in a project instruction file., CLI initialization defaults to no agent targets; agent linking requires an explicit target, and reset requires --force., Skill synchronization copies files into the project-local docnexus/skills workspace.
