## 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:** 0.1.6
- **Selected version is latest:** Yes
- **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.

Source confirms an automatic postinstall path that registers project agent configuration and installs package-owned skills without an affirmative setup prompt. The behavior is project-local and package-aligned, so it supports a warning rather than a publish block.

## 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 eligible package install automatically adds this package’s project MCP integration and agent skills. This is an unprompted first-party agent setup capability; no separate malicious behavior was established in the inspected setup path.

- **Trigger:** A local, non-global npm install in an application project with a package.json, unless setup is skipped by the hook’s conditions.

- **Impact:** Agent clients that use the project configuration may gain access to the package’s project tools and instructions without a separate setup prompt.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/postinstall.mjs, dist/chunk-WVITJDZ5.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-17T02:50:11.017Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The postinstall hook initializes the project, registers an MCP command in .mcp.json, adds npm scripts, and copies package skills into project agent directories.

- **Rationale:** Source confirms an automatic postinstall path that registers project agent configuration and installs package-owned skills without an affirmative setup prompt. The behavior is project-local and package-aligned, so it supports a warning rather than a publish block.

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

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 91.0%

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

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for warning:** The package manifest runs a postinstall script., For an eligible local install, postinstall calls project initialization without an affirmative setup prompt., Initialization registers the package’s MCP bridge and copies its shipped skills into project agent directories., The MCP registration runs the package’s local command when no existing uidx entry is present.

- **Evidence against:** The hook skips global installs, npm exec, nested dependency locations, and installs with UIDX\_SKIP\_INIT=1., Setup is project-local, preserves an existing uidx MCP entry, and copies skill files without overwriting existing files.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to @uidxkit/uidx@0.1.6.

- Review the evidence and your use of @uidxkit/uidx@0.1.6 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.
