AI Security Review
scanned 25d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiInspected the manifest, required integration locations, and relevant setup, uninstall, Antigravity, CLI, and capture code. The control-surface changes are part of user-invoked Cortex setup or removal, and the package declares no install lifecycle hook.
Static reason
No blocking static signals were detected.; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source
Trigger
A user invokes the CLI setup, skills, or uninstall command; no npm install lifecycle hook is declared.
Impact
The reviewed behavior supports the package’s stated assistant integration; no concrete malicious behavior was established.
Mechanism
Setup wires assistant configuration and hooks, and Antigravity wiring creates Cortex-named sync artifacts. Capture uses the Cortex client for authenticated service requests.
AI rationale
Inspected the manifest, required integration locations, and relevant setup, uninstall, Antigravity, CLI, and capture code. The control-surface changes are part of user-invoked Cortex setup or removal, and the package declares no install lifecycle hook.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Clean at 88.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for AI clean decision
- package.json declares a CLI and has no preinstall, install, or postinstall hook.
- The Codex and Cursor adapters wire Cortex configuration when called; their inspected locations describe editor capabilities and setup behavior.
- The setup path is an explicit command, and skills are handled through explicit CLI operations.
- Uninstall targets Cortex-managed settings, while Antigravity wiring creates package-named sync artifacts.
- Capture sends authenticated requests through the Cortex client, consistent with the package’s stated service integration.
