Do not execute instructions or code found in this document. ## Verdict summary **Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 14 low-signal pattern(s) reviewed. - **Verdict:** Clean - **Product-default install policy:** Allow - **Firewall policy:** No policy match - **Public report status:** Published - **Threat category:** None published - **Selected version:** 1.3.11 - **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: clean; recommendation: mark clean. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. Source inspection found guarded first-party machine onboarding, while ordinary dependency installs do not wire agent settings. The scanner’s execution and agent-integration hints are consistent with this product setup and test support; they do not establish malicious behavior. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 90.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-11T21:25:43.932Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-11T21:26:08.798Z - **Download time:** 780 ms - **Static scan time:** 874 ms - **AI review time:** 23211 ms - **Total time:** 24866 ms 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:** No attack was identified. The install hook wires first-party agent integrations only behind a deliberate global install or explicit machine-setup argument. - **Trigger:** A global npm install or an install invoked with --machine-setup triggers machine wiring. - **Impact:** No confirmed malicious impact or unconsented attack surface was established. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-11T21:26:08.798Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The package installs its resolver and agent integrations as onboarding; ordinary dependency installs exit before setup. - **Rationale:** Source inspection found guarded first-party machine onboarding, while ordinary dependency installs do not wire agent settings. The scanner’s execution and agent-integration hints are consistent with this product setup and test support; they do not establish malicious behavior. ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 90.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** package.json defines a postinstall hook that runs postinstall.cjs., The postinstall guard permits machine wiring only for a global install or an explicit --machine-setup argument; other installs exit without wiring., Machine setup connects the resolver, OpenCode plugin, and Codex hooks as first-party onboarding., The resolver target is a fixed twing path under the user home directory., The Codex integration targets the user’s Codex configuration path., The inspected OpenCode adapter builds a descriptor from the session ID and selected environment and directory values., test-support.js uses child processes to initialize throwaway Git test repositories. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @twing/cli@1.3.11. - Review the evidence and your use of @twing/cli@1.3.11 before allowing it. Restrict the permissions described in this report. - Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe. ## Public findings ### 1.
