AI Security Review

scanned 11d ago · by lpm-firewall-ai

The automatic global-install hook can set up the package's own agent integration, so this merits a warning under the agent extension lifecycle policy. The inspected behavior is first-party local plugin setup, not evidence of a malicious attack.

Static reason

High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.; source matched previously finalized malicious package; routed for review

Trigger

Global npm installation, unless VIBE_SKIP_SETUP is set.

Impact

The package may add its own agent plugin and integration surfaces to the user's home configuration.

Mechanism

The hook calls setupGlobal, which processes detected clients and can use the Claude CLI to register and install or update the local plugin.

AI rationale

Evidence

package.jsonscripts/postinstall.jsdist/install/global.jsdist/install/register.jsdist/install/plugin.js~/.config/vibe/plugin/vibe~/.agents/plugins/marketplace.json

Decision evidence

public snapshot

AI called this Suspicious at 91.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with medium false-positive risk.

Evidence for warning

package.json defines a postinstall hook that runs scripts/postinstall.js.
The hook proceeds only for global npm installs and stops when VIBE_SKIP_SETUP is set.
setupGlobal installs surfaces for every detected client; the Claude path can register the local plugin for user scope.
The plugin installer assembles a local tree and registers it in the personal marketplace; its paths are under the user's home directory.
The indicated register.js location reads Claude's installed plugin version; it does not itself change configuration.
Registration invokes the Claude CLI to add the local marketplace and install or update the package plugin.

Evidence against

The install-time setup is limited to global npm installs and has a VIBE_SKIP_SETUP opt-out.
The inspected registration points to this package's local plugin and uses the platform CLI; no unrelated endpoint or payload was found.

3 * vibe for the Claude desktop app — an MCP Bundle server that is nothing but a cable to the

4 * `vibe` CLI. Every tool runs `vibe <command> --json` in the project folder the user picked at

5 * install time (VIBE_PROJECT_DIR) and returns the JSON. The verdict stays in the CLI; this

6 * surface is for the interview, the approval, the judgement and the handoff — not for writing code.

7 *

8 * MCP over stdio is newline-delimited JSON-RPC 2.0. Three methods matter here: initialize,

9 * tools/list, tools/call. No SDK: the protocol subset is small and the bundle stays dependency-free.
