## 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:** 0.0.260
- **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.

Inspected source supports first-party agent extension setup through an explicit CLI command, warranting a warning under the supplied policy. The scanner's malicious label is not supported by a concrete install-hook attack or credential exfiltration chain.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1

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 CLI installs Wix agent skills during project creation and optionally generates MCP configuration. This establishes an agent extension capability, but no confirmed malicious attack was found.

- **Trigger:** Explicit project creation with installation enabled; selecting an IDE enables its MCP configuration.

- **Impact:** Adds agent instructions and enables external MCP code to run; future launches may resolve updated releases.

- **Evidence paths:** build/index.js, templates/app/.mcp.json.ejs

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-04T09:32:02.852Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** Runs the skills installer without separate confirmation and writes project-local configuration that launches an unpinned Wix MCP package.

- **Rationale:** Inspected source supports first-party agent extension setup through an explicit CLI command, warranting a warning under the supplied policy. The scanner's malicious label is not supported by a concrete install-hook attack or credential exfiltration chain.

- **Files touched:** .cursor/mcp.json, .vscode/mcp.json, .mcp.json

- **Network endpoints:** https://mcp.wix.com/sse

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 93.0%

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

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for warning:** The manifest has no npm install lifecycle hooks; setup runs through the explicit project-creation CLI., Project creation invokes npx to add wix/skills with confirmation prompts suppressed, unless installation is skipped., MCP setup offers an IDE choice and a decline option, with configuration destinations inside the generated project., The generated MCP configuration launches unpinned @wix/mcp-remote through npx against https://mcp.wix.com/sse, allowing later launches to resolve another release., Dynamic function construction in the generator belongs to EJS template compilation., The inspected API-key request authenticates to the Wix backoffice client; no unrelated credential recipient was established.

- **Evidence against:** No concrete exfiltration, malicious persistence, or install-hook attack was identified., MCP configuration is gated by IDE selection and targets a Wix service.
