WayAI CLI — sync hub configuration between local files and the platform
AI Security Review
scanned 22d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe source supports a warning for automatic first-party agent skill setup during ordinary CLI use. The package has no install lifecycle hook, and the inspected source does not establish the scanner’s alleged credential redirect or hidden payload execution.
Static reason
One or more suspicious static signals were detected.
Trigger
Running a CLI command other than help when the existing WayAI skill is present under agent skills.
Impact
Claude Code may load the WayAI skill from the project. No malicious attack was established, but the command changes agent configuration without a separate setup prompt.
Mechanism
The CLI creates a link in the Claude Code skills directory when that destination does not already contain the skill.
AI rationale
The source supports a warning for automatic first-party agent skill setup during ordinary CLI use. The package has no install lifecycle hook, and the inspected source does not establish the scanner’s alleged credential redirect or hidden payload execution.
Evidence
dist/index.js.claude/skills/wayai.agents/skills/wayai
Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Suspicious at 88.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with medium false-positive risk.
Evidence for warning
- The bundle identifies project skill locations for Claude Code, OpenCode, and agent skills.
- When the existing WayAI skill is present under agent skills, the CLI can create a Claude Code skill link; a non-help CLI command calls this behavior.
- The link operation skips help commands and does not replace an existing non-symlink target.
Evidence against
- package.json lists build, development, typecheck, and test scripts, with no install lifecycle hook.

Credential Redirect Persistence
