AI Security Review
scanned 25d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe source supports a warning for package-managed agent skill installation and synchronization. No concrete malicious behavior or unconsented install-time mutation was established.
Static reason
No blocking static signals were detected.; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source
Trigger
A user runs setup or repair, or a configured agent invokes the skills sync command.
Impact
Synced skills can affect later agent behavior; the inspected code does not establish malicious content or an attack against the user.
Mechanism
The package fetches published skill content with the configured Cortex token and installs the returned skills into detected agent skill directories.
AI rationale
The source supports a warning for package-managed agent skill installation and synchronization. No concrete malicious behavior or unconsented install-time mutation was established.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Suspicious at 85.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with medium false-positive risk.
Evidence for warning
- package.json defines release, promote, and rollback scripts, with no npm lifecycle hook.
- The package’s Codex and Cursor adapter locations describe configuration adapters and capture behavior.
- setup.mjs is reached by the explicit setup command; it installs bundled skills and syncs organization-published skills.
- skills.mjs fetches published skills using the configured Cortex token, then installs the returned skills into detected agent skill directories.
- The uninstall command removes Agnoclast configuration and skills; it is an explicit command.
- Antigravity wire() writes artifacts but does not load the launch agent.
- The capture module imports network and process APIs; this alone does not establish an attack.
