## Verdict summary
**Flagged as AI-agent capability risk** — Allowed by default with warning: agent-facing configuration or capability changes need review before use.

- **Verdict:** Suspicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Warn
- **Firewall policy:** Warn-only AI-agent capability risk
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** AI-agent capability abuse
- **Selected version:** 0.0.227
- **Selected version is latest:** No
- **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: suspicious; recommendation: downgrade to warn. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

No malicious install hook or theft/destructive behavior was found. The automatic agent-skills installation is a real, user-invoked AI-agent capability and warrants a warning under the stated policy.

## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** A user-invoked project-generation flow can install Wix skills through npx without a separate consent prompt. Optional MCP configuration is limited to the newly generated project.

- **Trigger:** User runs the create-app CLI and completes project creation without --skip-install.

- **Impact:** Adds third-party agent skills and may create project-local AI-agent configuration.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, bin/index.cjs, build/index.js, build/generator-Z254FDKG.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-07-19T13:18:39.979Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** automatic external skills installation plus project-local MCP configuration

- **Rationale:** No malicious install hook or theft/destructive behavior was found. The automatic agent-skills installation is a real, user-invoked AI-agent capability and warrants a warning under the stated policy.

- **Files touched:** bin/index.cjs, build/index.js, build/generator-Z254FDKG.js, \[new-project\]/.cursor/mcp.json, \[new-project\]/.vscode/mcp.json, \[new-project\]/.mcp.json

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 93.0%

- **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for warning:** build/index.js:66963 invokes \`npx --yes skills add wix/skills -y\` during normal project creation when installs are enabled., build/index.js:67027 schedules that skills-install command automatically after dependency installation., build/index.js:66554-66556 targets MCP config paths in the newly created project for Cursor, VS Code, or Claude Code.

- **Evidence against:** package.json has no preinstall/install/postinstall lifecycle hook., bin/index.cjs only checks Node version then loads the CLI entrypoint., MCP IDE choice is presented interactively and includes a No option; no broad/global agent-config path is shown., No credential harvesting, destructive action, or covert exfiltration chain was confirmed in inspected entrypoint/generation code.
