- **Verdict:** Clean
- **Product-default install policy:** Allow
- **Firewall policy:** No policy match
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** None published
- **Selected version:** 0.100.2
- **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 no install lifecycle hook or concrete attack. The flagged agent configuration write is part of explicit workspace initialization, and the separate skills hint does not install or update agent extensions.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 94.0%
- **Started:** 2026-10-22T18:53:27.557Z

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 surface was identified in the inspected source. The agent-facing project note is created by the explicit init command, and the skills hint stores display state locally.

- **Trigger:** Running the user-invoked vatio init command creates the workspace note; ordinary CLI runs may display the guarded skills hint.

- **Impact:** No harmful account action, credential transfer, or unconsented install-time agent configuration change was identified.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-22T18:54:43.217Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The note adds Vatio workspace instructions to AGENTS.md. The hint reads skill-install state and writes a per-directory display timestamp in the CLI config directory.

- **Rationale:** Source inspection found no install lifecycle hook or concrete attack. The flagged agent configuration write is part of explicit workspace initialization, and the separate skills hint does not install or update agent extensions.

- **Files touched:** AGENTS.md

- **Network endpoints:** registry.npmjs.org

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 94.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The package manifest exposes a CLI and declares yaml as its only runtime dependency; it has no install lifecycle hook. The inspected yaml source is parser and stringifier code., The AGENTS.md note is written during the explicit init command and contains Vatio workspace guidance. The skills hint is guarded and records display state in the CLI config directory., The bounded runtime/dependency source review found no attack behavior.
