## Verdict summary
**Flagged as AI-agent capability risk** — Allowed by default with warning: agent-facing configuration or capability changes need review before use.

- **Verdict:** Suspicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Warn
- **Firewall policy:** Warn-only AI-agent capability risk
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** AI-agent capability abuse
- **Selected version:** 1.23.0
- **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 explicit command mutates agent configuration and enables later updates, which warrants a capability warning. The manifest has no install hook and the inspected credential endpoint validation is restricted.

## Latest scan

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:** An explicit CLI plugin-install command can modify Claude Code configuration and enable automatic updates for the Tsuga marketplace. No install-time attack behavior was identified.

- **Trigger:** A user runs the CLI install plugin command for Claude Code.

- **Impact:** A user who runs this setup command grants the configured marketplace future update capability; no confirmed covert attack surface was established.

- **Evidence paths:** dist/cli.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-09-28T01:55:02.347Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The command installs a marketplace plugin, then writes the user's Claude settings file with automatic updates enabled unless the user supplies the opt-out flag.

- **Rationale:** The explicit command mutates agent configuration and enables later updates, which warrants a capability warning. The manifest has no install hook and the inspected credential endpoint validation is restricted.

- **Files touched:** .claude/settings.json

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 90.0%

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

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for warning:** The manifest exposes a CLI entry point and contains no package-install lifecycle hook., The explicit install plugin commands invoke Claude and Codex plugin installation commands., The Claude plugin command writes the user's Claude settings file and enables automatic marketplace updates., Credential destinations are restricted to Tsuga API hosts or local hosts.

- **Evidence against:** No automatic install-time agent configuration was identified., The agent configuration behavior is reached only through named CLI subcommands.

## Affected versions and remediation
