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:** 0.0.262 - **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 a warning for first-party agent extension setup and unpinned external execution, rather than a malicious verdict. The scanner's credential gateway and download-execution labels do not establish credential theft or an installation-hook attack. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 90.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-06T20:54:30.846Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-06T20:55:47.758Z - **Download time:** 1270 ms - **Static scan time:** 11229 ms - **AI review time:** 64412 ms - **Total time:** 76912 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:** Project creation installs Wix agent skills with prompts suppressed and can generate project-local MCP configuration. This establishes a first-party agent setup capability, but no confirmed malicious attack. - **Trigger:** Explicit CLI project creation with dependency installation enabled; MCP configuration additionally requires selecting an IDE. - **Impact:** External installer code executes during project creation, and selected IDEs gain a persistent project-local Wix MCP integration; remote package implementation and update behavior remain outside this snapshot. - **Evidence paths:** build/index.js, templates/app/.cursor/mcp.json.ejs - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-06T20:55:47.758Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The CLI invokes an external skills installer and generates configuration that lets an IDE execute an unpinned Wix MCP package through npx. Later MCP launches may resolve newer releases without another setup prompt. - **Rationale:** Inspected source supports a warning for first-party agent extension setup and unpinned external execution, rather than a malicious verdict. The scanner's credential gateway and download-execution labels do not establish credential theft or an installation-hook attack. - **Files touched:** .cursor/mcp.json, .vscode/mcp.json, .mcp.json - **Network endpoints:** https://mcp.wix.com/sse ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 90.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** package.json defines no npm installation lifecycle hooks or runtime self-dependency., build/index.js automatically runs npx skills add wix/skills with prompts suppressed during project creation; skipInstall disables this task., The CLI offers an MCP opt-out and selects configuration paths inside the generated project., The Cursor template configures unpinned @wix/mcp-remote execution through npx against https://mcp.wix.com/sse., Dynamic function construction in build/generator-FXTZWHP7.js belongs to the bundled EJS template compiler., The shared command runner uses child processes with shell execution disabled. - **Evidence against:** No concrete credential theft, unrelated credential gateway, or malicious installation hook was established., MCP configuration requires an IDE selection; its destination is Wix-owned and its configuration is project-local. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @wix/create-app@0.0.262. - Review the evidence and your use of @wix/create-app@0.0.262 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.
