## Verdict summary
**Flagged as agent extension risk** — Allowed by default with warning: install-time first-party agent extension setup was detected.

- **Verdict:** Suspicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Warn
- **Firewall policy:** Warn-only agent extension risk
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Agent extension lifecycle risk
- **Selected version:** 0.3.159
- **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.

This is a first-party, project-local AI-agent compatibility mutation invoked at runtime, not an install hook or a confirmed payload chain. The automatic control-surface write warrants a warning, but the inspected source does not establish malicious intent or concrete compromise behavior.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 90.0%
- **Started:** 2026-08-29T23:47:19.713Z

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:** There is no install-time execution. On normal CLI invocation, the package may create a same-vendor Claude skill symlink when a matching WayAI skill already exists in the project.

- **Trigger:** The user runs a non-help wayai command from a project containing .agents/skills/wayai/SKILL.md.

- **Impact:** It changes a narrow AI-agent skill path without an explicit setup command; no exfiltration, remote code loading, or broad control-surface mutation was confirmed.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, dist/index.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-08-29T23:48:37.736Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** Creates a project-local compatibility symlink and performs background version checks.

- **Rationale:** This is a first-party, project-local AI-agent compatibility mutation invoked at runtime, not an install hook or a confirmed payload chain. The automatic control-surface write warrants a warning, but the inspected source does not establish malicious intent or concrete compromise behavior.

- **Files touched:** .agents/skills/wayai/SKILL.md, .claude/skills/wayai, ~/.wayai/skill-update-check.json

- **Network endpoints:** https://raw.githubusercontent.com/wayai-pro/wayai-skill/main/skills/wayai/SKILL.md, https://api.wayai.pro

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 90.0%

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

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for warning:** Running most CLI commands can create a WayAI skill symlink in the current project’s Claude skill directory., The CLI starts a detached background refresh that contacts npm and checks a WayAI skill version., The package enables Sentry telemetry for installed copies unless disabled.

- **Evidence against:** The manifest has no preinstall, install, or postinstall hook., The symlink is limited to a WayAI-named path and only when an existing project WayAI skill is present., The update installer is reached only through the explicit update command.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to @wayai/cli@0.3.159.

- Review the evidence and your use of @wayai/cli@0.3.159 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.
