## Verdict summary
**Flagged — allowed with a warning** — Allowed by default policy, but 16 finding(s) warrant review before installing.

- **Verdict:** Suspicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Warn
- **Firewall policy:** Matched warn-list
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Unknown
- **Selected version:** 1.2.182
- **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: suspicious; recommendation: downgrade to warn. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

Obfuscated credential handling with an unverifiable authenticated destination is a concrete unresolved dangerous capability. The absence of lifecycle hooks and the explicit CLI trigger do not establish malicious install behavior.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 88.0%
- **Started:** 2026-09-23T23:57:47.059Z

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 explicitly invoked CLI installs and starts a persistent daemon. Its obfuscated daemon code reads Claude OAuth credentials and sends them in an authenticated request whose endpoint cannot be verified statically from the readable source.

- **Trigger:** A user runs the vibelet CLI.

- **Impact:** This creates unresolved exposure risk for Claude credentials and agent-session access; no automatic install-time attack was confirmed.

- **Evidence paths:** dist/index.cjs, dist/vibelet.mjs

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-09-24T00:02:16.768Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The launcher installs the bundled daemon; the daemon reads .claude/.credentials.json and places an extracted OAuth value in a Bearer header for an obfuscated fetch destination.

- **Rationale:** Obfuscated credential handling with an unverifiable authenticated destination is a concrete unresolved dangerous capability. The absence of lifecycle hooks and the explicit CLI trigger do not establish malicious install behavior.

- **Files touched:** dist/index.cjs, dist/vibelet.mjs, .claude/.credentials.json

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 88.0%

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

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for warning:** The package exposes an explicit CLI binary and has no npm lifecycle hook., The obfuscated daemon reads the local Claude credentials file and extracts OAuth data., The daemon uses that extracted value as a Bearer authorization header, but the destination is hidden behind an obfuscated value., Running the CLI installs and starts a daemon service.

- **Evidence against:** No install, preinstall, or postinstall hook was present in package.json., The inspected service installation occurs after explicit CLI execution, not during package installation.
