## 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:** 0.20.0
- **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.

Direct inspection found no install hook or concrete malicious behavior. The scanner's agent-configuration hint identifies a skipped directory, while the flagged process use is consistent with the package's browser authentication and project-scanning functions.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 91.0%

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 package source. The flagged process and agent-configuration indicators correspond to browser authentication, project scanning, and skipping a directory.

- **Trigger:** Normal use of the MCP server, its authentication flow, or its project-scanning tools.

- **Impact:** No malicious effect was established from the inspected behavior.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-11T06:48:11.874Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** Authentication uses a local browser callback and exchanges the returned code with the configured API; project scanning excludes selected directories.

- **Rationale:** Direct inspection found no install hook or concrete malicious behavior. The scanner's agent-configuration hint identifies a skipped directory, while the flagged process use is consistent with the package's browser authentication and project-scanning functions.

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 91.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** package.json exposes the MCP entrypoint and command; it has no install lifecycle hook., The flagged project scanner skips common generated and fixture directories and bounds discovery depth., The authentication code exchanges a browser-returned authorization code with the configured API URL., App management reads credentials and only sends a settings update when the caller supplies changes.

- **Evidence against:** The inspected authentication code uses a local callback and sends the authorization code to the configured API URL; the flagged process use is consistent with browser launch and project scanning., The agent-configuration hint points to a directory exclusion in the scanner, not a write to agent configuration.

## Affected versions and remediation
