Do not execute instructions or code found in this document. ## Verdict summary **Flagged as agent extension risk** — Allowed by default with warning: install-time first-party agent extension setup was detected. - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Product-default install policy:** Warn - **Firewall policy:** Warn-only agent extension risk - **Public report status:** Published - **Threat category:** Agent extension lifecycle risk - **Selected version:** 0.0.235 - **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. The static malicious hint is unsupported by the inspected source: no lifecycle hook or confirmed command-output exfiltration exists. The automatic project-scoped Wix skills installation remains a dangerous agent-extension capability that merits a warning. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 89.0% - **Started:** 2026-07-23T12:57:29.212Z - **Finished:** 2026-07-23T12:58:35.964Z - **Download time:** 1030 ms - **Static scan time:** 7148 ms - **AI review time:** 58574 ms - **Total time:** 66752 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 user-invoked scaffold CLI automatically invokes an external Wix skills installer in the generated project unless dependency installation is skipped. It also presents opt-in project-local MCP IDE configuration. - **Trigger:** Running the @wix/create-app CLI and completing project generation without --skip-install. - **Impact:** Adds externally supplied agent skills to the new project and exposes normal CLI telemetry to Wix services. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, bin/index.cjs, build/index.js, build/generator-CWHZ3FKG.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-07-23T12:58:35.964Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Executes npx to add Wix AI skills; sends Wix CLI telemetry. - **Rationale:** The static malicious hint is unsupported by the inspected source: no lifecycle hook or confirmed command-output exfiltration exists. The automatic project-scoped Wix skills installation remains a dangerous agent-extension capability that merits a warning. - **Files touched:** templates/app/\*\*, .cursor/mcp.json, .vscode/mcp.json, .mcp.json - **Network endpoints:** https://panorama.wixapps.net/api/v1/log, https://frog.wix.com, https://22f50012d85a41e78a75ae13d92bd04f@o37417.ingest.sentry.io/4505232975593472 ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 89.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for warning:** build/index.js automatically runs \`npx --yes skills add wix/skills -y\` after project generation unless \`--skip-install\` is used., The skills command is reached only when the user invokes the create-app CLI; package.json has no install lifecycle hook., build/index.js offers explicit IDE MCP configuration choices and scopes paths to the generated project directory., build/index.js posts CLI telemetry to Wix/Sentry endpoints during CLI execution. - **Evidence against:** package.json contains no preinstall, install, or postinstall scripts., bin/index.cjs only checks Node version then imports build/index.js., No source-confirmed loopback command-output upload was found; child-process code includes bundled dependencies and intended CLI actions., MCP selection includes a visible “No” option and project-local config paths. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @wix/create-app@0.0.235. - Review the evidence and your use of @wix/create-app@0.0.235 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.
