## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 13 low-signal pattern(s) reviewed.

- **Verdict:** Clean
- **Product-default install policy:** Allow
- **Firewall policy:** No policy match
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** None published
- **Selected version:** 0.21.18
- **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: clean; recommendation: mark clean. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The package exposes a command-line interface without install lifecycle hooks. The flagged credential flow is reachable through the explicit supervisor command and sends a Tangle API key to the Tangle router for its intended agent workflow; the reviewed source showed no unrelated collection or redirect persistence.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 95.0%

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:** No attack identified; the inspected behavior matches a sandbox operations CLI.

- **Trigger:** The CLI parses arguments at startup; network and process actions occur through selected commands, including the explicit supervise command.

- **Impact:** No unauthorized impact identified.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-30T10:33:51.889Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The supervisor workflow passes the Tangle API key to the Tangle router to run sandbox agents. No unrelated credential forwarding or concealed execution was identified.

- **Rationale:** The package exposes a command-line interface without install lifecycle hooks. The flagged credential flow is reachable through the explicit supervisor command and sends a Tangle API key to the Tangle router for its intended agent workflow; the reviewed source showed no unrelated collection or redirect persistence.

- **Network endpoints:** router.tangle.tools

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 95.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The manifest has no preinstall, install, or postinstall hook; its scripts are build, development, type-check, verification, and test commands., The executable bin imports the CLI entry point, which dispatches commands from process.argv., The supervisor command passes its Tangle API key to the Tangle router as part of an explicit sandbox-agent run., The remote cli-bridge dependency manifest declares no install lifecycle script.

- **Evidence against:** The CLI uses process execution and network APIs for its stated sandbox and agent-management functions., The Tangle credential is sent to router.tangle.tools for the explicit supervisor workflow; the source does not show an unrelated credential destination or persistence of a redirect., The version-change hint reports package.json as the only changed file and no new lifecycle scripts.

## Affected versions and remediation
