## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 15 low-signal pattern(s) reviewed.

- **Verdict:** Manual Review
- **Product-default install policy:** Allow
- **Firewall policy:** No policy match
- **Public report status:** Under Review
- **Threat category:** Unknown
- **Selected version:** 0.23.0
- **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: manual review; recommendation: manual review. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

Inspected source shows explicit connect setup and a publish-time build hook, with no concrete attack behavior established. The required clean review needs 12 distinct citations, but the output permits at most 8, so the result is manual review under the citation coverage rule.

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 concrete attack was identified in the inspected source. Agent configuration changes are part of the explicit connect flow, and the package manifest has no install-time lifecycle hook.

- **Trigger:** User-invoked connect flow; the package's prepublishOnly hook runs during publishing.

- **Impact:** The inspected behavior supports ordinary package setup and publishing; no malicious effect was established.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-07T20:52:23.440Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** Connect writes Telora daemon configuration and merges harness-specific scaffolding; prepublishOnly builds the package.

- **Rationale:** Inspected source shows explicit connect setup and a publish-time build hook, with no concrete attack behavior established. The required clean review needs 12 distinct citations, but the output permits at most 8, so the result is manual review under the citation coverage rule.

- **Files touched:** package.json, dist/cli/connect.js, dist/cli/connect/agents.js, dist/cli/connect/claude.js, dist/cli/connect/config-write.js, dist/update/self-update.js

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Manual Review

- **Confidence:** 68.0%

- **Recommended action:** manual\_review

- **Intent class:** Unknown

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **AI review observations:** The manifest has a prepublishOnly build hook and no preinstall, install, or postinstall hook., Agent scaffolding is written by the runConnect flow when the user invokes connect., The connect flow registers Telora with selected agent harnesses and merges configuration., The daemon config stores Telora connection details in the user's home directory., The update code describes a global install of the Telora daemon from its update channel., The inspected source does not establish a concrete attack; clean citation coverage requires 12 distinct paths, exceeding the 8-citation limit.
