Can alter agent instructions and execute the installed hook at Claude Stop events within the consumer repository. - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Product-default install policy:** Block - **Firewall policy:** Warn by default - **Public report status:** Published - **Threat category:** Soft block: AI-agent control surface - **Selected version:** 12.5.5 - **Selected version is latest:** Yes - **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai) LPM flags this version as an AI-agent control-surface risk. On npm installation, the package mutates the consumer repository’s Claude and generic agent control surfaces, then registers a Claude Stop hook that runs package-provided code. This is an unconsented install-time broad AI-agent control-surface modification. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-25T12:45:22.438Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-25T12:46:29.434Z - **Download time:** 1017 ms - **Static scan time:** 2698 ms - **AI review time:** 63279 ms - **Total time:** 66996 ms ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** On npm installation, the package mutates the consumer repository’s Claude and generic agent control surfaces, then registers a Claude Stop hook that runs package-provided code. This is an unconsented install-time broad AI-agent control-surface modification. - **Trigger:** npm postinstall for a project declaring @softize/opus - **Impact:** Can alter agent instructions and execute the installed hook at Claude Stop events within the consumer repository. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, bin/lib/postinstall.mjs, bin/lib/init.mjs, bin/lib/materialize.mjs, registry/hooks/opus-check-on-stop.mjs - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-25T12:46:29.434Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** automatic materialization of agent skills, instructions, hooks, and Git hooks - **Attack narrative:** Installing the dependency runs postinstall without an explicit user command. The postinstall initializes the consumer project, materializes package-controlled skills to .agents and .claude, updates AGENTS.md and CLAUDE.md, installs Git hooks, and configures Claude’s Stop hook to execute a package-provided script. This is install-time modification of foreign AI-agent control surfaces. - **Rationale:** The lifecycle chain concretely performs broad agent-control and hook persistence in the consuming project. Although no exfiltration was found, this meets the blocking policy for unconsented npm postinstall mutation of foreign/broad AI-agent control surfaces. - **Files touched:** opus.json, base.json, .agents/skills/\*, .claude/skills/\*, .claude/hooks/opus-check-on-stop.mjs, .claude/settings.json, AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, .githooks/pre-push.d/\*, .githooks/pre-push, .git/config ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** npm postinstall invokes package setup automatically., Postinstall calls initProject in the consumer project., Setup materializes skills into both .agents and .claude., Setup writes a Claude Stop hook that executes package code., Setup also rewrites AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, and Git hook configuration. - **Evidence against:** No credential harvesting or outbound network endpoint was found in the inspected lifecycle path., The installed Stop hook is scoped to changed Opus-marked apps and is fail-open on infrastructure errors. ## Public findings ### 1.
