Do not execute instructions or code found in this document. ## Verdict summary **Flagged as AI-agent capability risk** — Allowed by default with warning: agent-facing configuration or capability changes need review before use. - **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:** 0.94.3 - **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: suspicious; recommendation: downgrade to warn. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. The package exposes an explicit command that installs plugins and registers MCP servers in agent configuration, a warning-level agent capability. The inspected evidence does not show this behavior running automatically during npm installation or establish malicious intent. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 81.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-09T09:42:39.624Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-09T09:43:18.553Z - **Download time:** 1531 ms - **Static scan time:** 2922 ms - **AI review time:** 34475 ms - **Total time:** 38929 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:** An explicit plugin-add command can install a plugin and register its MCP server in user agent configuration. - **Trigger:** The user invokes the plugin-add CLI command. - **Impact:** The configured agent may launch the registered plugin server in later sessions; no unconsented install-time mutation or separate malicious behavior was identified. - **Evidence paths:** dist/index.js, dist/plugin.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-09T09:43:18.553Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The command installs or registers a plugin and writes MCP server entries to agent configuration files. - **Rationale:** The package exposes an explicit command that installs plugins and registers MCP servers in agent configuration, a warning-level agent capability. The inspected evidence does not show this behavior running automatically during npm installation or establish malicious intent. - **Files touched:** dist/plugin.js, ~/.claude.json, ~/.codex/config.toml, ~/.gemini/config/mcp\_config.json ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 81.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** The CLI exposes an explicit \`plugin add\` command for installing plugins for agent CLIs. \[dist/index.js\], Plugin setup registers an MCP server in user-level Claude, Codex, and Gemini configuration. \[dist/plugin.js\], The manifest has no lifecycle hooks; these behaviors are invoked through CLI commands. \[package.json, dist/index.js\] - **Evidence against:** The plugin configuration behavior is reached through an explicit CLI command, not an npm install hook. \[dist/index.js\], Other inspected integration code concerns session enrollment, migration, restore, skill sync, PTY loading, or credential detection; it does not establish an attack in this package. \[dist/enroll.js, dist/migrate.js, dist/restore.js, dist/skills-sync.js, dist/pty.js, dist/auth-tools.js\] ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @sentropic/h2a-runtime@0.94.3. - Review the evidence and your use of @sentropic/h2a-runtime@0.94.3 before allowing it. Restrict the permissions described in this report. - Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe. ## Public findings ### 1. Medium: Network - **Category:** Source - **Confidence:** 75.0% Package source references network APIs. ### 2. Medium: Environment Vars - **Category:** Source - **Confidence:** 75.0% Package source references environment variables. ### 3. Low: Filesystem - **Category:** Source - **Confidence:** 70.0% Package source references filesystem APIs. ### 4. High: Copied Package Dependency Bridge - **Category:** Source - **Confidence:** 83.0% - **Path:** dist/pty.js - **Public source:** [View source]() Package metadata claims a different repository identity while copied source loads a runtime dependency bridge. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```javascript package = @sentropic/h2a-runtime; repositoryIdentity = h2a; dependency = node-pty L76: try { L77: require("node-pty"); L78: } ``` ### 5. High: External Ai Agent Control Surface Mutation - **Category:** Source - **Confidence:** 94.0% - **Path:** dist/plugin.js - **Public source:** [View source]() Runtime or CLI source writes behavior-bearing configuration into a user or project AI-agent control surface. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```javascript Runtime or CLI code links a write operation to an explicit external AI-agent control path: nd, args: [...args] }; root.mcpservers = servers; return json.stringify(root, null, 2) + "\n"; } export function mergeclaudemcpservers(json, name, command, args) { return mergemcpserversjson(json, name, command, args, "claude.json"); } export function mergeagymcpservers(json, name, command, args) { return mergemcpserversjson(json, name, command, args, "mcp_config.json"); } ``` ### 6. Low: High Entropy Strings - **Category:** Supply Chain - **Confidence:** 55.0% Package source contains high-entropy string patterns. ### 7. Low: Url Strings - **Category:** Supply Chain - **Confidence:** 65.0% Package source contains URL literals. ### 8. Medium: Structural Risk Force Deep Review - **Category:** Artifact Inventory - **Confidence:** 80.0% Artifact structure forces deeper review even if the static behavioral verdict is clean. ### 9. High: Semantic Analysis Limited - **Category:** Scanner Coverage - **Confidence:** 100.0% - **Path:** dist/auth-tools.js\#virtual:normalized:round1 - **Public source:** [View source]() A bounded semantic-analysis stage reached its safety limit; remaining detectors completed, but this package requires AI review. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```text stage = ast_semantic_analysis; reason = ast_parse_error; limitedFiles = 9 ``` ### 10. High: Previous Version Dangerous Delta - **Category:** Supply Chain - **Confidence:** 93.0% - **Path:** dist/index.js - **Public source:** [View source]() This package version adds a dangerous source file absent from the previous stored version; route for source-aware review. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```javascript matchType = previous_version_dangerous_delta matchedPackage = @sentropic/h2a-runtime@0.96.2 matchedIdentity = npm:QHNlbnRyb3BpYy9oMmEtcnVudGltZQ:0.96.2 similarity = 0.826 summary = stored previous version shares package body but lacks this dangerous source file ``` ### 11. Medium: Suspicious Lifecycle Evidence - **Category:** Manifest - **Confidence:** 81.0% - **Path:** dist/config.js - **Public source:** [View source]() The manifest has no lifecycle hooks; these behaviors are invoked through CLI commands. \[package.json, dist/index.js\] Public source snippet (untrusted): ```javascript function parsePluginInstall(raw) { if (!raw || typeof raw !== "object") return undefined; const i = raw; if (i.method !== "npm" && i.method ``` ### 12.
