WayAI CLI — sync hub configuration between local files and the platform
AI Security Review
scanned 1mo ago · by lpm-firewall-aiSource shows explicit user-command agent configuration mutation, which warrants a warning under the supplied policy. No automatic install-hook attack or concrete malicious intent was established.
Static reason
One or more suspicious static signals were detected.
Trigger
The user runs wayai admin skill install.
Impact
Installed instructions can influence subsequent agent behavior; background version checks do not automatically update those instructions.
Mechanism
The CLI downloads skill files from its configured API and writes them beneath the selected agent skill directories.
AI rationale
Source shows explicit user-command agent configuration mutation, which warrants a warning under the supplied policy. No automatic install-hook attack or concrete malicious intent was established.
Evidence
dist/index.js.claude.opencode.agents
Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Suspicious at 94.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with medium false-positive risk.
Evidence for warning
- package.json has no npm install lifecycle hooks.
- The bundle targets .claude, .opencode, and .agents skill directories.
- An explicit skill install subcommand activates the installer.
- The installer requires authentication and downloads skill files through the configured API client.
- Downloaded files are written into project agent skill directories, with relative-path validation.
- Background skill checks cache version information rather than automatically replacing installed skills.
Evidence against
- No unconsented install-time agent mutation or confirmed malicious attack was established.
- Explicit command activation, authentication, and path validation limit the capability.
