WayAI CLI — sync hub configuration between local files and the platform
AI Security Review
scanned 1mo ago · by lpm-firewall-aiInspected source supports a behavior-specific warning for first-party agent extension setup, not a malware block. The scanner's hidden-loader and credential-theft labels were not substantiated by the inspected execution and authentication paths.
Static reason
One or more suspicious static signals were detected.
Trigger
An ordinary non-help CLI command with an existing WayAI skill, or explicit wayai admin skill install.
Impact
Changes instructions available to local AI agents; background version checks do not automatically replace installed skill content.
Mechanism
Creates a Claude skill symlink or downloads authenticated platform skill files and writes them into project harness skill directories.
AI rationale
Inspected source supports a behavior-specific warning for first-party agent extension setup, not a malware block. The scanner's hidden-loader and credential-theft labels were not substantiated by the inspected execution and authentication paths.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Suspicious at 93.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with medium false-positive risk.
Evidence for warning
- package.json has no npm install lifecycle hooks or runtime self-dependency.
- The bundle targets WayAI skills in .claude, .opencode, and .agents.
- Ordinary non-help CLI commands can automatically link an existing WayAI skill into Claude's skill directory.
- The explicit admin skill install command authenticates to the configured platform and writes downloaded files into harness skill directories.
- Background skill refresh caches version metadata; installing updated skill content requires a separate command.
Evidence against
- No concrete hidden payload execution or covert credential export was established from inspected source.
- Skill linking requires an existing WayAI skill and preserves existing valid skill files.
