## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 13 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:** 1.0.10
- **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.

The package has no install lifecycle hook, and the flagged hook setup routes events to a loopback relay during cloud-agent use. The process execution and version checks inspected serve the stated CLI update and integration features; no concrete malicious behavior was found.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 92.0%
- **Started:** 2026-10-31T02:29:53.018Z

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 flagged process execution and hook setup align with CLI update and cloud-agent features.

- **Trigger:** Explicit CLI commands, including self-update or cloud-agent use; version checks run for selected commands.

- **Impact:** No unauthorized credential collection, external exfiltration, or install-time action was identified.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-31T02:30:42.870Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The cloud-agent hooks forward payloads to a loopback relay. Version checks contact the package registry or policy endpoint with version information.

- **Rationale:** The package has no install lifecycle hook, and the flagged hook setup routes events to a loopback relay during cloud-agent use. The process execution and version checks inspected serve the stated CLI update and integration features; no concrete malicious behavior was found.

- **Files touched:** .claude/settings.local.json, .claude/adit-cloud-\<terminalId\>.settings.local.json, .codex/hooks.json, ~/.adit/version-check.json

- **Network endpoints:** 127.0.0.1, registry.npmjs.org, adit-cloud.varve.ai

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 92.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The manifest defines only build and typecheck scripts; it has no install lifecycle hook., The CLI hook relay binds to 127.0.0.1 and constructs a loopback endpoint., The Claude cloud flow installs hooks pointing to that local relay while starting its provider., The version-policy check sends the CLI version as a query parameter to the policy endpoint.

- **Evidence against:** The package uses child-process execution for the explicit self-update command and process inspection in the Codex watcher., Claude status-line integration can run the pre-existing user-configured status-line command and sends session metadata to the local relay.
