This remains warn-only unless evidence shows foreign-agent hijack through preinstall/install/postinstall, hidden persistence, exfiltration, remote code execution, or other concrete malicious behavior. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 98.0% - **Started:** 2026-07-17T01:18:56.767Z - **Finished:** 2026-07-17T01:20:07.749Z - **Download time:** 510 ms - **Static scan time:** 79 ms - **AI review time:** 70392 ms - **Total time:** 70982 ms ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** npm installation automatically writes package-supplied AI-agent instruction files into the user's home-directory Claude skills location. Environment configuration can extend the same lifecycle write to Codex, agents, CodeBuddy, Cursor, and Copilot surfaces. - **Trigger:** npm \`postinstall\` (default target: Claude); \`WOWOK\_SKILLS\_TARGETS\` enables additional clients. - **Impact:** Unconsented persistence of package-controlled prompts/skills can alter AI-agent behavior across projects and clients. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/install.js, dist/cli.js, dist/index.js, wowok-tools/SKILL.md - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-07-17T01:20:07.749Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Lifecycle-driven AI-agent instruction installation and broad uninstall cleanup. - **Rationale:** The lifecycle hook establishes persistent agent behavior outside the package/project boundary. No exfiltration or remote payload execution was found, but the install-time AI-agent control-surface mutation meets the blocking policy. Product guard normalized uninstall-only AI-agent control-surface mutation to warn-only suspicious because modern npm does not run uninstall lifecycle scripts and the install path is user-invoked. - **Files touched:** package.json, scripts/install.js, wowok-\*/SKILL.md, ~/.claude/skills/wowok-\*/SKILL.md, ~/.codex/skills/wowok-\*/SKILL.md, ~/.agents/skills/wowok-\*/SKILL.md, ~/.codebuddy/skills/wowok-\*/SKILL.md, ~/.cursor/rules/wowok-\*.mdc, ~/.github/prompts/wowok-\*.prompt.md ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 98.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for:** \`package.json\` runs \`scripts/install.js\` on \`postinstall\`., \`scripts/install.js\` defaults to writing 13 skills under \`~/.claude/skills\`., Lifecycle targets include foreign agent surfaces: \`~/.codex\`, \`~/.agents\`, \`.cursor\`, and \`.github/prompts\`., The install hook writes package-controlled Markdown instructions via \`fs.writeFileSync\`., \`preuninstall\` deletes matching skill directories across every configured client surface. - **Evidence against:** No network, subprocess, dynamic-code, credential-harvesting, or binary-loading APIs found in package JavaScript., \`dist/index.js\` only exports skill metadata/helpers., The CLI's project-local \`init\` and \`uninit\` paths are explicit user commands. ## Public findings ### 1. High: Install Time Lifecycle Scripts - **Category:** Manifest - **Confidence:** 90.0% - **Path:** package.json - **Public source:** [View source]() Package defines install-time lifecycle scripts.
