- **Verdict:** Suspicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Warn
- **Firewall policy:** Warn-only AI-agent capability risk
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** AI-agent capability abuse
- **Selected version:** 2.3.1
- **Selected version is latest:** No

## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** An explicit setup command installs downloaded skills into AI IDEs. This affects agent capabilities, but no unconsented install-time attack was established.

- **Trigger:** The user invokes b2c setup skills and confirms installation or supplies the force flag.

- **Impact:** Installed skills can influence subsequent agent behavior; the supplied policy treats explicit user-command agent mutation as warning-only.

- **Evidence paths:** dist/commands/setup/skills.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-09-30T21:45:52.516Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** Selected skill artifacts are downloaded, scanned, and passed to the SDK installer for selected IDEs and scope.

- **Rationale:** The inspected source does not establish malware. The supplied policy requires a warning for explicit user-command mutation of agent capabilities.

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 91.0%

- **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for warning:** The b2c executable dispatches user commands through oclif., The explicit setup skills command downloads and scans selected skill artifacts., The command installs skills for selected AI IDEs with project or global scope., Installation requires confirmation unless the caller supplies the force flag.

- **Evidence against:** No npm preinstall, install, or postinstall hook or runtime self-dependency was found., The inspected entrypoints did not establish covert exfiltration or malicious payload execution.
