Foreign agent extensions can be silently propagated into Verboo's configuration, affecting later agent behavior. - **Verdict:** AI-agent control-surface policy finding - **Product-default install policy:** Warn by default; block when configured - **Firewall policy:** Warn by default - **Public report status:** Published - **Threat category:** Soft block: AI-agent control surface - **Selected version:** 0.15.24 - **Selected version is latest:** No - **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai) This finding concerns changes to an AI agent's instructions or configuration without explicit user action. It does not by itself establish malware intent. The CLI warns by default and blocks when configured for this policy. AI assessment: malicious; recommendation: publish block. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. LPM flags this version as an AI-agent control-surface risk. Installation automatically imports foreign Claude Code skills and plugins into Verboo's agent directory. This mutates an AI-agent control surface without an explicit user action. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 98.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-12T11:32:16.372Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-12T11:32:48.408Z - **Download time:** 1021 ms - **Static scan time:** 55 ms - **AI review time:** 30958 ms - **Total time:** 32036 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:** Installation automatically imports foreign Claude Code skills and plugins into Verboo's agent directory. This mutates an AI-agent control surface without an explicit user action. - **Trigger:** npm installation, through the postinstall lifecycle hook. - **Impact:** Foreign agent extensions can be silently propagated into Verboo's configuration, affecting later agent behavior. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/postinstall.mjs - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-12T11:32:48.408Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** recursive cross-agent skill and plugin copying - **Attack narrative:** When npm installs the package, its postinstall hook runs automatically. The hook reads Claude Code's skills and plugins from the user's home directory and recursively copies them to Verboo's corresponding directories. The operation is not guarded by an explicit setup command or consent prompt, so installation silently changes a separate AI-agent extension surface. - **Rationale:** The package performs unconsented postinstall mutation of a foreign AI-agent control surface by importing Claude Code extensions. This is concrete install-hook abuse even though the inspected hook has no network activity. - **Files touched:** ~/.claude/skills, ~/.claude/plugins, ~/.verboo/skills, ~/.verboo/plugins ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 98.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for policy risk:** The npm postinstall hook automatically runs the installer and suppresses failure., The installer recursively copies skills and plugins from the foreign Claude Code directory into Verboo's directory., This foreign AI-agent data migration occurs on every install without an explicit user command. - **Evidence against:** The postinstall source shows no network request or credential exfiltration., The fish PATH update is limited to users running fish. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @verboo/code@0.15.24. - Avoid installing @verboo/code@0.15.24. Remove it from direct dependencies and check your lockfile for transitive copies. - Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe. - If this version ran, investigate the affected machine and build environment. Rotate credentials it could access and rebuild from a trusted environment. ## Public findings ### 1.
