## Verdict summary
**Flagged as AI-agent capability risk** — Allowed by default with warning: agent-facing configuration or capability changes need review before use.

- **Verdict:** Suspicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Warn
- **Firewall policy:** Warn-only AI-agent capability risk
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** AI-agent capability abuse
- **Selected version:** 0.22.169
- **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: suspicious; recommendation: downgrade to warn. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The source shows an explicit connect flow modifying Codex and Claude agent configuration, a concrete agent capability that merits a warning. The manifest declares only prepublishOnly, so the inspected evidence does not show unconsented install-time mutation or a confirmed malicious chain.

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:** The explicit connect flow can add Telora instructions and integration settings to agent configuration files. This is a guarded setup capability; the inspected source does not establish an install-time attack.

- **Trigger:** A user invokes the connect command.

- **Impact:** The configured agents may receive Telora instructions and hook behavior in later sessions; no unauthorized installation or data theft was established.

- **Evidence paths:** dist/cli/connect.js, dist/cli/connect/agents.js, dist/cli/connect/claude.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-07T20:51:53.353Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** Connect writes or merges Codex AGENTS.md files and Claude repository settings, including a SessionStart hook.

- **Rationale:** The source shows an explicit connect flow modifying Codex and Claude agent configuration, a concrete agent capability that merits a warning. The manifest declares only prepublishOnly, so the inspected evidence does not show unconsented install-time mutation or a confirmed malicious chain.

- **Files touched:** dist/cli/connect.js, dist/cli/connect/agents.js, dist/cli/connect/claude.js

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 82.0%

- **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for warning:** Running the explicit connect flow writes daemon configuration and registers the Telora integration for the selected harness., The connect integration can write or merge Codex AGENTS.md instructions, including the operator-wide ~/.codex/AGENTS.md file., The Claude integration can merge permissions and a SessionStart hook into the repository's .claude/settings.json., The manifest has only a prepublishOnly script, which builds and stamps package metadata; no install lifecycle hook is declared.

- **Evidence against:** The Codex and Claude configuration changes are in the connect flow, rather than an npm install hook., The inspected manifest has no runtime self-dependency on @telora/daemon.

## Affected versions and remediation
