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. Source establishes explicit-request AI-agent configuration mutation, which warrants a warning under the supplied policy. No block-eligible attack was established. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 88.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-02T10:42:31.890Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-02T10:44:11.694Z - **Download time:** 1037 ms - **Static scan time:** 2673 ms - **AI review time:** 96093 ms - **Total time:** 99804 ms 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:** The package exposes an MCP tool that registers caller-selected commands in AI provider configuration. This is a guarded agent-control capability; no automatic malicious mutation was established. - **Trigger:** An explicit MCP registration tool request. - **Impact:** Registered commands can subsequently run as MCP servers under the configured provider. - **Evidence paths:** dist/mcp.cjs - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-02T10:44:11.694Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The request supplies a command, arguments, and environment settings to provider configuration writers. - **Rationale:** Source establishes explicit-request AI-agent configuration mutation, which warrants a warning under the supplied policy. No block-eligible attack was established. - **Files touched:** .claude.json ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 88.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** The manifest has no preinstall, install, or postinstall hook and no runtime self-dependency., MCP registration accepts caller-provided commands, arguments, and environment settings and modifies provider configuration., The Claude registration path saves MCP server changes to .claude.json., Configuration mutation is reached through an explicit MCP tool request. - **Evidence against:** No concrete covert exfiltration or malicious install behavior was established., The flagged Function constructor appears in bundled AJV schema compilation; obfuscation alone does not establish a hidden payload. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @whalent/agent@0.3.485. - Review the evidence and your use of @whalent/agent@0.3.485 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. ## Public findings ### 1.
