AI Security Review
scanned 1mo ago · by lpm-firewall-aiSource shows explicit user-command mutation of agent skill and command directories, which warrants a capability warning under the supplied policy. No automatic npm install mutation or concrete malicious behavior was established.
Static reason
One or more suspicious static signals were detected.
Trigger
Run taskless init, or select integration targets in the interactive setup wizard.
Impact
Changes the Taskless instructions available to agents; subsequent init invocations can refresh them without another prompt. No npm installation trigger was found.
Mechanism
Detect agent directories, write bundled Taskless content and reference stubs, remove obsolete tracked integrations, and save installation state.
AI rationale
Source shows explicit user-command mutation of agent skill and command directories, which warrants a capability warning under the supplied policy. No automatic npm install mutation or concrete malicious behavior was established.
Evidence
dist/index.js.taskless.claude.agents.cursor.opencode
Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Suspicious at 94.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with medium false-positive risk.
Evidence for warning
- package.json registers dist/index.js as the taskless CLI and has no npm install lifecycle hooks or runtime self-dependency.
- dist/index.js writes Taskless skill stubs into detected agent directories.
- The explicit init command invokes installation without an additional prompt and refreshes installed content to the current CLI version.
- The interactive setup wizard asks which tools should receive Taskless integration.
Evidence against
- The inspected behavior is package-aligned and activated through CLI setup; no covert installation, credential theft, or malicious payload was established.
