## 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:** 0.1.4
- **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 automatic, unprompted install-time setup of a project-local agent integration warrants a warning as a first-party extension lifecycle risk. The inspected behavior does not establish malicious attack behavior.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 92.0%
- **Started:** 2026-10-17T02:48:44.907Z
- **Finished:** 2026-10-17T02:49:32.162Z
- **Download time:** 771 ms
- **Static scan time:** 5111 ms
- **AI review time:** 41372 ms
- **Total time:** 47255 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:** The install hook automatically adds a project-local uidx MCP integration and copies package-owned skills into agent skill directories. This is an agent extension setup capability with residual consent risk; no concrete malicious attack was established.

- **Trigger:** An eligible local npm installation runs the package postinstall hook.

- **Impact:** Project agent clients may discover the uidx integration and package-provided skills after installation.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/postinstall.mjs, dist/chunk-UAN6K4LE.js, skills/uidx-project/SKILL.md

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-17T02:49:32.162Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The hook initializes the adjacent project, adds a uidx entry to .mcp.json when one is absent, and copies skills into project agent directories.

- **Rationale:** The automatic, unprompted install-time setup of a project-local agent integration warrants a warning as a first-party extension lifecycle risk. The inspected behavior does not establish malicious attack behavior.

- **Files touched:** .mcp.json, .agents/skills, .claude/skills, .uidx/.uidx-agent/skills

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 92.0%

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

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for warning:** The manifest runs a postinstall script., The hook proceeds for eligible local npm installs and calls project initialization without an affirmative setup prompt., Initialization writes a uidx MCP server entry into the project .mcp.json file., Initialization copies package-owned skills into project agent skill directories; the project skill describes coordinating CLI and MCP changes with the local workspace., The configured MCP bridge and skills are for the project-local uidx workspace.

## Affected versions and remediation
