- **Verdict:** Clean
- **Product-default install policy:** Allow
- **Firewall policy:** No policy match
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** None published
- **Selected version:** 0.89.0
- **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 manifest has no install hook, and the agent-related behavior inspected is invoked through ordinary CLI commands. Session sharing requires confirmation and authorization before sending the selected transcript to the configured Vatio service.

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 in the inspected source. The agent-related writes and network checks are tied to normal CLI use and provide Vatio workspace guidance or version information.

- **Trigger:** A user runs \`vatio init\`, selected report or test commands, or explicitly shares a session.

- **Impact:** No confirmed unauthorized agent control change, credential disclosure, or other attack was established.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-18T01:19:34.200Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** Initialization writes a local AGENTS.md note; the skills hint prints update guidance and checks Vatio’s version registry. Session sharing has a confirmation step and authorization check.

- **Rationale:** The manifest has no install hook, and the agent-related behavior inspected is invoked through ordinary CLI commands. Session sharing requires confirmation and authorization before sending the selected transcript to the configured Vatio service.

- **Files touched:** lib/commands/misc.mjs, lib/skills-hint.mjs, lib/commands/improve.mjs, lib/commands/support-commands.mjs

- **Network endpoints:** https://registry.npmjs.org/@vatio-ai/skills/latest, vatio.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 exposes a CLI entry point and has no npm install lifecycle hook., Running \`vatio init\` writes a local workspace note; the note provides Vatio workflow guidance., The skills hint runs after selected report commands, skips CI or an opt-out, and checks Vatio’s skills version registry., Session sharing asks for confirmation, requires authorization, and posts the chosen transcript to the configured Vatio service.
