Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions. AI assessment: malicious; recommendation: publish block. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. Installing the package automatically changes consumer-project agent configuration and installs an agent Stop hook. The hook can prevent a Claude session from ending after it runs package-controlled checks. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 99.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-12T00:02:46.186Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-12T00:03:49.349Z - **Download time:** 252 ms - **Static scan time:** 1513 ms - **AI review time:** 61397 ms - **Total time:** 63163 ms The recorded confidence comes from the underlying analysis.

The hook can prevent a Claude session from ending after it runs package-controlled checks. - **Trigger:** npm postinstall when a consumer installs @softize/opus. - **Impact:** Unconsented control of an AI-agent lifecycle and project hook configuration. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, bin/lib/postinstall.mjs, bin/lib/materialize.mjs, registry/hooks/opus-check-on-stop.mjs - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-12T00:03:49.349Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Automatic agent-hook and skill materialization into the consumer project. - **Attack narrative:** During npm installation, postinstall calls project initialization. That initialization copies package-controlled skills into generic and Claude agent directories, installs a Claude Stop-hook program, and rewrites Claude settings to invoke it. The hook inspects changed files, runs a package-controlled checker, and exits with a blocking status when it detects a failure. This is an unconsented install-time mutation of a foreign AI-agent control surface. - **Rationale:** The automatic lifecycle chain modifies consumer AI-agent configuration and adds a hook that can block agent session termination. This meets the install-hook abuse blocking policy. - **Files touched:** package.json, bin/lib/postinstall.mjs, bin/lib/init.mjs, bin/lib/materialize.mjs, registry/hooks/opus-check-on-stop.mjs, .agents/skills, .claude/skills, .claude/hooks/opus-check-on-stop.mjs, .claude/settings.json, .githooks ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for block:** The package runs a postinstall script automatically., Postinstall invokes project initialization in the consumer directory., Initialization materializes skills and hooks into both generic and Claude agent directories., It adds a Claude Stop hook that blocks an agent from ending a session after certain checks fail., The installed hook runs project commands based on changed files. - **Evidence against:** No package-owned data-exfiltration endpoint was found., The hook uses fixed local commands rather than a downloaded payload. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @softize/opus@17.0.0. - Avoid installing @softize/opus@17.0.0. Remove it from direct dependencies and check your lockfile for transitive copies. - Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe. - If this version ran, investigate the affected machine and build environment. Rotate credentials it could access and rebuild from a trusted environment. ## Public findings ### 1.
