## Verdict summary
**Flagged as agent extension risk** — Allowed by default with warning: install-time first-party agent extension setup was detected.

- **Verdict:** Suspicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Warn
- **Firewall policy:** Warn-only agent extension risk
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Agent extension lifecycle risk
- **Selected version:** 1.117.4
- **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 manifest has no install-time hook, and the Claude configuration change is made through the explicit project setup command. The persistent first-party agent hooks fit the warning category for agent extension setup, while the inspected source did not establish a malicious attack chain.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 88.0%

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:** The CLI can install first-party SEOAgent instructions and register project-local Claude hooks. The hooks run SEOAgent sync at session start and after write or edit activity.

- **Trigger:** A project owner invokes seoagent init; installed hooks then run on the configured Claude events.

- **Impact:** Project agent configuration causes automatic sync calls during Claude sessions. This is a guarded, package-aligned capability; no separate malicious action was confirmed.

- **Evidence paths:** index.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-13T23:31:43.208Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** Setup writes hooks to .claude/settings.json for SessionStart and PostToolUse write/edit events. Each hook invokes SEOAgent sync.

- **Rationale:** The manifest has no install-time hook, and the Claude configuration change is made through the explicit project setup command. The persistent first-party agent hooks fit the warning category for agent extension setup, while the inspected source did not establish a malicious attack chain.

- **Files touched:** index.js, .claude/settings.json

- **Network endpoints:** https://seoagent.com

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 88.0%

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

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for warning:** package.json exposes index.js as the CLI entrypoint; inspection found no npm lifecycle scripts., index.js names project-local SEOAgent skill and Claude settings paths., The explicit init command dispatches project setup., Setup writes Claude hooks for SessionStart and PostToolUse write/edit events., Those hooks run SEOAgent sync; the configured service defaults to https://seoagent.com.

- **Evidence against:** The hook setup requires a CLI command, and the sync destination is package-aligned; inspection found no unrelated credential transfer or confirmed command-output exfiltration.
