## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 17 low-signal pattern(s) reviewed.

- **Verdict:** Clean
- **Product-default install policy:** Allow
- **Firewall policy:** No policy match
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** None published
- **Selected version:** 0.0.273
- **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: clean; recommendation: mark clean. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The manifest has no install lifecycle hook, and the flagged credential and template behaviors are consistent with the CLI's stated functions. The inspected source does not substantiate the scanner's malicious classification.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 88.0%
- **Started:** 2026-10-21T10:56:23.930Z

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:** No malicious attack surface was identified in the inspected source. The flagged behaviors resolve to user-invoked CLI functions and bundled dependency code.

- **Trigger:** The CLI runs when a user invokes its command; custom template retrieval occurs as part of a chosen template workflow.

- **Impact:** No unauthorized credential transfer or other attack impact was established.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-21T10:57:34.377Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** API-key authentication targets Wix Backoffice, and custom template retrieval validates a Git URL before cloning it to a temporary directory.

- **Rationale:** The manifest has no install lifecycle hook, and the flagged credential and template behaviors are consistent with the CLI's stated functions. The inspected source does not substantiate the scanner's malicious classification.

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 88.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** package.json lists the CLI entrypoint and build, development, test, and typecheck scripts; it has no install lifecycle hook., The bin wrapper imports the bundled CLI when invoked., API-key login sends the supplied token through the Wix Backoffice client and stores it as auth data., Custom template retrieval validates a Git URL, clones it into a temporary directory, and removes its Git metadata., The flagged bundle excerpts show a file-utility dependency import and Sentry stack-frame parsing; they do not establish malicious behavior.

## Affected versions and remediation
