## 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:** 0.0.268
- **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 confirmed risk is automatic first-party agent skills setup during project creation, so this warrants a warning. The reported credential redirection was not supported by the inspected authentication flow, which stores API key auth locally and uses Wix service endpoints.

## 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:** During normal app creation, the CLI adds Wix-owned agent skills to the new project without a separate confirmation step. This is a first-party agent extension setup capability; no broader agent configuration change or data transfer was established.

- **Trigger:** A user creates an app and does not skip installation.

- **Impact:** Wix skills are added to the generated project and may affect agents that use those project skills.

- **Evidence paths:** build/index.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-15T08:53:54.207Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The CLI runs the skills installer with automatic confirmation flags from the generated project directory.

- **Rationale:** The confirmed risk is automatic first-party agent skills setup during project creation, so this warrants a warning. The reported credential redirection was not supported by the inspected authentication flow, which stores API key auth locally and uses Wix service endpoints.

- **Files touched:** build/index.js

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 87.0%

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

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for warning:** Project creation queues Wix skills installation when dependency installation is not skipped., The CLI runs \`npx skills add wix/skills\` with automatic confirmation flags in the new project directory., The separate MCP setup asks which IDE to configure, and its paths are project-local., The inspected API key flow stores auth data locally and configures Wix service endpoints.

- **Evidence against:** The manifest declares no install lifecycle hook., The source does not establish an unrelated credential recipient, broad agent configuration change, or data transfer.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to @wix/create-app@0.0.268.

- Review the evidence and your use of @wix/create-app@0.0.268 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.
