AI Security Review

scanned 4h ago · by lpm-firewall-ai

LPM flags this version as an AI-agent control-surface risk. Installing the package automatically modifies the consumer workspace and its OpenCode control surface. It can install enabled MCP command definitions without an explicit setup command.

Static reason

High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source

Trigger

npm installation, which runs postinstall.

Impact

A package installation can establish and enable AI-agent capabilities in a consumer project, including npx-resolved MCP commands.

Mechanism

Postinstall copies agent files, commands, configuration, tools, and assets into the initiating workspace.

Policy narrative

npm invokes scripts/install.js automatically. The script targets INIT_CWD, populates .opencode with agents and commands, and writes an OpenCode configuration if none exists. That configuration enables MCP commands through npx -y, creating a broad AI-agent control surface in the consumer project without an explicit setup action.

Rationale

This is an unconsented postinstall mutation of a foreign AI-agent control surface, including enabled command definitions. Conflict protection does not remove the risk because a new workspace receives the configuration and agent content automatically.
