## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 22 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:** 2026.806.1
- **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.

No confirmed malicious attack surface. The install hook performs a narrow package-cache cleanup and PATH conflict notice; network and AI-agent setup are user-command flows.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 96.0%
- **Started:** 2026-08-06T08:53:23.294Z

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 confirmed malicious attack surface. The install hook performs a narrow package-cache cleanup and PATH conflict notice; network and AI-agent setup are user-command flows.

- **Trigger:** npm postinstall; separately, explicit vg scan/push/login/install commands

- **Impact:** No unconsented credential exfiltration, remote payload execution, or install-time agent-control mutation was found.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/postinstall.mjs, dist/cli.js, dist/chunk-5AUCYYBG.js, dist/chunk-H4ZIJSHE.js, dist/chunk-HTLDXEHW.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-08-06T08:54:20.494Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** package-aligned local CLI, optional authenticated cloud upload, and opt-in agent integration

- **Rationale:** Scanner findings conflate documented, user-invoked DSN-authenticated uploads and explicit assistant setup with malicious behavior. Source inspection found no concrete malicious chain at install or import time.

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 96.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** package.json defines postinstall., scripts/postinstall.mjs removes only Vibgrate's embed-health cache marker and checks PATH for a bin-name conflict.

- **Evidence against:** scripts/postinstall.mjs has no network, credential access, agent-config write, or payload execution., dist/cli.js executes only when invoked as its bin entrypoint., Cloud uploads require an explicit DSN/login and occur through documented scan --push/push flows., dist/chunk-5AUCYYBG.js sends scan artifacts only to the DSN-selected Vibgrate ingest host., AI assistant files are changed only by explicit vg install commands., dist/chunk-H4ZIJSHE.js uses local WASM grammars; no remote loader was found.

## Affected versions and remediation

- Review the evidence and your use of @vibgrate/cli@2026.806.1 before allowing it. Restrict the permissions described in this report.
- Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe.
