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 installs Claude Code hooks through its explicit init command, which later trigger automatic package syncs. This is a guarded first-party agent integration capability, not evidence of malicious behavior. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 90.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-13T23:29:57.134Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-13T23:31:12.954Z - **Download time:** 1019 ms - **Static scan time:** 835 ms - **AI review time:** 73964 ms - **Total time:** 75820 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:** Running seoagent init installs a Claude Code hook in the project settings. Later session starts and Write/Edit events invoke the package's silent sync command; this is a first-party integration capability, and inspection did not establish a malicious transfer. - **Trigger:** A user runs seoagent init; the installed hook then activates at session start and after Write/Edit events. - **Impact:** The hook can synchronize project data with the SEOAgent service during later agent sessions. - **Evidence paths:** index.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-13T23:31:12.954Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Initialization adds hooks to .claude/settings.json that run seoagent sync --silent, with an npx fallback. - **Rationale:** The package installs Claude Code hooks through its explicit init command, which later trigger automatic package syncs. This is a guarded first-party agent integration capability, not evidence of malicious behavior. - **Files touched:** .claude/settings.json - **Network endpoints:** https://seoagent.com ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 90.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** package.json exposes index.js as the seoagent CLI entry point., index.js identifies .claude/settings.json as the Claude Code hook configuration file., The CLI init flow calls the helper that writes the Claude Code hooks., The helper adds SessionStart and PostToolUse hooks for Write/Edit events, then writes the settings file; those hooks run the package's silent sync command., The sync command uses the SEOAgent service by default. - **Evidence against:** The hook setup is reached through the explicit seoagent init command, not an npm lifecycle hook., The hook runs the package's own sync command; inspection did not establish credential theft or another malicious action. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @seoagent-official/seoagent@1.117.5. - Review the evidence and your use of @seoagent-official/seoagent@1.117.5 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.
