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 inspection confirms an automatic remote skills-installer invocation during normal CLI project creation, but not malicious install-time behavior, credential theft, stealth persistence, or foreign broad agent-control mutation. Warn for the unresolved agent-extension capability risk. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 86.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-17T10:58:33.898Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-17T10:59:56.972Z - **Download time:** 752 ms - **Static scan time:** 14323 ms - **AI review time:** 67998 ms - **Total time:** 83074 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:** On a user-invoked app-creation run, the package downloads and executes the npm \`skills\` CLI with non-interactive flags to add Wix skills in the generated project. This is not install-time execution of the package itself. - **Trigger:** User runs the create-app CLI without skipping dependency installation. - **Impact:** Adds externally sourced agent skills to the new project without a separate confirmation. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, build/index.js, build/generator-R6MCAQJ7.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-17T10:59:56.972Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Automatically invokes a remote npx skills installer in the generated project. - **Rationale:** Source inspection confirms an automatic remote skills-installer invocation during normal CLI project creation, but not malicious install-time behavior, credential theft, stealth persistence, or foreign broad agent-control mutation. Warn for the unresolved agent-extension capability risk. ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 86.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** Normal project generation runs \`npx --yes skills add wix/skills -y\` in the new project., The skills command is included automatically whenever dependency installation is not skipped. - **Evidence against:** No npm preinstall, install, or postinstall hook is declared., MCP IDE configuration is presented interactively with a No option., The bundled template clone path validates a user-supplied Git URL before cloning. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @wix/create-app@0.0.243. - Review the evidence and your use of @wix/create-app@0.0.243 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.
