## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 14 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:** 0.21.169
- **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 manifest has no install-time lifecycle hook; prepublishOnly builds and stamps the package. Source review tied the flagged shell, update, and agent-configuration behavior to daemon operation, configured verification, or operator-invoked setup, with no concrete attack behavior found.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 94.0%

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 was identified in the inspected source. The package provides daemon and agent orchestration features, and the flagged execution paths serve those functions.

- **Trigger:** The daemon runs, an operator invokes connect or update, or a configured verification command runs.

- **Impact:** No confirmed unauthorized credential transfer, agent control change, persistence, or destructive behavior was established.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-20T03:22:10.755Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** Runtime process and network operations support daemon work; connector configuration is written during setup, and verification runs its configured command in a worktree.

- **Rationale:** The manifest has no install-time lifecycle hook; prepublishOnly builds and stamps the package. Source review tied the flagged shell, update, and agent-configuration behavior to daemon operation, configured verification, or operator-invoked setup, with no concrete attack behavior found.

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 94.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** package.json defines only a prepublishOnly build-and-stamp lifecycle script; the CLI entry is dist/index.js., The agent configuration writers register Telora integrations and keep credentials in daemon configuration; their behavior is reached through the explicit connect flow., The inspected runtime modules describe daemon spawning, verification, worktree management, scanning, and backend operations; no concrete attack behavior was identified., The update implementation installs a requested daemon version through its update path; no install hook triggers it., The verification baseline runs the configured verification command in a worktree to capture output.

- **Evidence against:** The package exposes network and process execution capabilities, including a configured shell command for verification and a runtime update path; inspected source ties these to daemon functions and user or product configuration.
