## 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:** 3.16.0
- **Selected version is latest:** No
- **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai)

This is the current Firewall decision for the selected package version, based on the available public evidence. Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions.

AI assessment: suspicious; recommendation: downgrade to warn. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The postinstall hook makes a global Claude skills directory change without an affirmative setup step, so this qualifies as first-party package-owned agent extension setup. The copied content is Tigris storage guidance, and the inspected browser credential flow does not establish an unrelated recipient.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 84.0%

The recorded confidence comes from the underlying analysis. Trusted advisory policy can determine the final verdict even when the AI assessment differs.

## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** The install hook adds a Tigris storage guidance skill to the user's global Claude skills directory. This is automatic first-party agent extension setup; no separate malicious behavior was established.

- **Trigger:** Installing the package as a dependency on a system with an existing Claude configuration directory.

- **Impact:** The Tigris guidance becomes available to Claude Code in future sessions.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, postinstall.cjs, SKILL.md

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-14T05:14:15.014Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The hook copies the package's SKILL.md into the global Claude skills directory.

- **Rationale:** The postinstall hook makes a global Claude skills directory change without an affirmative setup step, so this qualifies as first-party package-owned agent extension setup. The copied content is Tigris storage guidance, and the inspected browser credential flow does not establish an unrelated recipient.

- **Files touched:** ~/.claude/skills/tigris/SKILL.md

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 84.0%

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

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for warning:** The manifest runs postinstall.cjs during installation., The hook runs for dependency installs and copies the package's SKILL.md into the user's global Claude skills directory when that directory exists., The copied skill describes Tigris object storage usage and is marked non-user-invocable., The browser credential flow prompts for credentials and uses the configured or default endpoint when saving them.
