A package install persists commands in a broad AI-agent control surface, allowing those external binaries to run during future Claude Code sessions. - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Product-default install policy:** Block - **Firewall policy:** Warn by default - **Public report status:** Published - **Threat category:** Soft block: AI-agent control surface - **Selected version:** 0.22.130 - **Selected version is latest:** Yes - **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai) LPM flags this version as an AI-agent control-surface risk. Installation can alter the user's global Claude Code hook configuration without an explicit setup command. The added hooks run external Telora binaries after tool use and when prompts are submitted. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-30T22:40:46.563Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-30T22:41:45.500Z - **Download time:** 763 ms - **Static scan time:** 1059 ms - **AI review time:** 57114 ms - **Total time:** 58937 ms ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** Installation can alter the user's global Claude Code hook configuration without an explicit setup command. The added hooks run external Telora binaries after tool use and when prompts are submitted. - **Trigger:** npm installation triggers postinstall when both Telora hook binaries are on PATH. - **Impact:** A package install persists commands in a broad AI-agent control surface, allowing those external binaries to run during future Claude Code sessions. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/postinstall.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-30T22:41:45.500Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Automatic global Claude Code command-hook injection. - **Attack narrative:** The package automatically runs its postinstall hook, checks for two Telora executables, and silently edits ~/.claude/settings.json if they are present. It appends empty-matcher command hooks for PostToolUse and UserPromptSubmit, making the executables run across future Claude Code activity. This is unconsented install-time mutation of a broad AI-agent control surface. - **Rationale:** The automatic postinstall hook persistently injects external commands into the user's global Claude Code configuration. Its conditional check does not establish consent and the empty matcher makes the hooks broadly applicable. - **Files touched:** scripts/postinstall.js, ~/.claude/settings.json, telora-ai-hook, telora-ai-human-hook ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** The manifest runs a postinstall script automatically and suppresses its failure., The postinstall script locates external Telora hook binaries and targets the user's Claude Code settings file., When those binaries exist, the script adds command hooks with an empty matcher and writes the altered settings silently. - **Evidence against:** The mutation is conditional on both Telora hook binaries already being available., The inspected install hook contains no network request or credential exfiltration code. ## Public findings ### 1.
