Create Wix apps
AI Security Review
scanned 3mo ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe scanner's command/network combination is not proof of malicious exfiltration: the inspected endpoint is telemetry and no lifecycle hook exists. The unconditional noninteractive Wix-skills installation during a user-invoked scaffold remains a package-owned agent-extension risk.
Static reason
High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.
Trigger
User runs the create-app CLI and does not pass --skip-install; MCP files require an IDE selection.
Impact
A user-invoked scaffold can add Wix agent capabilities to its generated project; no unconsented install-time compromise is confirmed.
Mechanism
Project-scoped Wix skills installation and optional MCP configuration.
AI rationale
The scanner's command/network combination is not proof of malicious exfiltration: the inspected endpoint is telemetry and no lifecycle hook exists. The unconditional noninteractive Wix-skills installation during a user-invoked scaffold remains a package-owned agent-extension risk.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Suspicious at 88.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for warning
- build/index.js:67874 runs `npx --yes skills add wix/skills` after project creation.
- build/index.js:67393 asks the user before selecting Cursor, VS Code, or Claude Code MCP configuration.
- build/index.js:67465 targets generated-project MCP config paths.
- build/index.js:56586 posts CLI telemetry to panorama.wixapps.net.
Evidence against
- package.json has no preinstall, install, or postinstall hook.
- bin/index.cjs only runs when the user invokes the CLI.
- MCP setup has an explicit No option and is limited to the new project.
- No source evidence of credential harvesting, destructive actions, or hidden foreign-agent config writes.
