## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 16 low-signal pattern(s) reviewed.

- **Verdict:** Clean
- **Product-default install policy:** Allow
- **Firewall policy:** No policy match
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** None published
- **Selected version:** 0.0.282
- **Selected version is latest:** Yes
- **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: clean; recommendation: mark clean. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The manifest exposes a CLI without install lifecycle hooks, and the flagged npm credential flow scopes authentication to the configured package registry for metadata requests. The other reviewed endpoints are Wix service hosts used by the CLI; the scanner indicators did not establish malicious behavior.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 94.0%

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:** No attack was identified; the reviewed network and credential behavior fits a Wix app creation CLI.

- **Trigger:** The bundled CLI runs when a user invokes the package command.

- **Impact:** No unauthorized credential disclosure or other harmful behavior was identified.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-11-01T16:06:11.344Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The CLI uses Wix service hosts and retrieves npm package metadata using credentials scoped to the selected npm registry.

- **Rationale:** The manifest exposes a CLI without install lifecycle hooks, and the flagged npm credential flow scopes authentication to the configured package registry for metadata requests. The other reviewed endpoints are Wix service hosts used by the CLI; the scanner indicators did not establish malicious behavior.

- **Network endpoints:** registry.npmjs.org, manage.wix.com, editor.wix.com, code.wix.com, www.wix.com, www.wixapis.com

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 94.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The package exposes bin/index.cjs as its CLI entrypoint, which imports the bundled application., npm authentication is selected for the configured npm registry and used to request package metadata from that registry., The bundled HTTP client uses Wix service hosts for Wix CLI requests.
