## Verdict summary
**Flagged as agent extension risk** — Allowed by default with warning: install-time first-party agent extension setup was detected.

- **Verdict:** Suspicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Warn
- **Firewall policy:** Warn-only agent extension risk
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Agent extension lifecycle risk
- **Selected version:** 0.1.5
- **Selected version is latest:** No
- **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai)

LPM treats this as warn-only first-party agent extension lifecycle risk. On npm postinstall, the package configures a project-local OpenCode extension and enables two npx-fetched MCP tools. It also performs vendor license verification when a license key is present.

## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** On npm postinstall, the package configures a project-local OpenCode extension and enables two npx-fetched MCP tools. It also performs vendor license verification when a license key is present.

- **Trigger:** npm installation of the package

- **Impact:** Modifies the target workspace's .opencode control surface; later OpenCode use can run the configured MCP commands.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/install.js, opencode.tera.example.json

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-08-21T18:59:44.254Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** postinstall project-local agent configuration and license API verification

- **Rationale:** This is a guarded but automatic AI-agent extension lifecycle mutation, so it warrants a warning. The inspected source does not establish malware or a broad/foreign control-surface takeover.

- **Files touched:** .opencode/agents/\*, .opencode/commands/\*, .opencode/opencode.json, .opencode/opencode.tera.example.json, .opencode/tera-core.manifest.json, .tera/license.state.json, tera-system/\*, tools/\*, project-control/\*

- **Network endpoints:** https://teranoo.com/api/license/verify

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 94.0%

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

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for:** npm postinstall runs the installer automatically., Installer writes agent commands/configuration into the install target's .opencode directory., Installed OpenCode config enables MCP commands through npx., Postinstall sends a supplied license key to the vendor license API.

- **Evidence against:** Writes are project-local and ownership-aware; unowned conflicting files are retained., No destructive shell execution, credential harvesting, or remote payload execution was found., The remote request is a bounded license-verification POST to a package-aligned endpoint.

## Public findings

### 1. High: Install Time Lifecycle Scripts
- **Category:** Manifest
- **Confidence:** 90.0%
- **Path:** package.json
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@tera-system/core@0.1.5/package.json>)

- **Confidence:** 75.0%
- **Path:** package.json
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@tera-system/core@0.1.5/package.json>)

Install-time lifecycle script is not statically allowlisted and needs review.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```json
scripts.postinstall = node scripts/install.js
```

### 3. Low: Scripts Present
- **Category:** Manifest
- **Confidence:** 100.0%

Package declares npm scripts.

### 4. Medium: Network
- **Category:** Source
- **Confidence:** 75.0%

Package source references network APIs.

### 5. Medium: Environment Vars
- **Category:** Source
- **Confidence:** 75.0%

### 7. High: Entrypoint Foreign Package Code Overwrite
- **Category:** Source
- **Confidence:** 94.0%
- **Path:** scripts/install.js
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@tera-system/core@0.1.5/scripts/install.js>)

Manifest-reachable source overwrites another installed package with package-defined remote behavior.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```javascript
Manifest-reachable source resolves another installed package, overwrites its runtime code, and injects package-defined remote behavior.
scripts/install.js:
function copyFile(src, dest) {
fs.copyFileSync(src, dest);
fs.copyFileSync(destFile, bak);
fs.copyFileSync(srcFile, destFile);
copyFile(srcFile, destFile);
copyFile(configSrc, configDest);
copyFile(configSrc, exampleDest);
copyFile(f, d);
```

### 8. Critical: Ai Agent Control Hijack
- **Category:** Source
- **Confidence:** 90.0%
- **Path:** scripts/install.js
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@tera-system/core@0.1.5/scripts/install.js>)

Source creates an unconsented AI-agent control surface through install-time mutation or a default unauthenticated remote skill channel.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```javascript
L10: *  - Never overwrites a file it does not own.
L11: *  - Tracks ownership via `.opencode/tera-core.manifest.json`.
L12: *  - Only updates files it owns, always keeping a backup first.
L13: *  - Idempotent: re-running is safe; identical files are skipped.
L14: *  - Never touches an existing user `opencode.json`.
L15: *
...
L65: function copyFile(src, dest) {
L66: fs.mkdirSync(path.dirname(dest), { recursive: true });
L67: fs.copyFileSync(src, dest);
L68: }
...
L70: function loadOwnership(target) {
L71: const p = path.join(target, ".opencode", MANIFEST_NAME);
```

### 9. Low: High Entropy Strings

sizeBytes = 6816
magicHex = [redacted]
```

### 12. Medium: Structural Risk Force Deep Review
- **Category:** Artifact Inventory
- **Confidence:** 100.0%

Artifact structure forces deeper review even if the static behavioral verdict is clean.

### 13. Low: No License
- **Category:** Manifest
- **Confidence:** 80.0%
