## 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:** 0.1.6
- **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 package performs automatic install-time setup of its own coding-agent integrations, creating a real agent extension lifecycle risk. The inspected behavior is consistent with package-owned XOROX integration, so warn rather than block.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 88.0%

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:** Installation automatically adds this package’s hooks and MCP server to Cursor and Claude Code project settings. Those integrations can run on agent events and supply XOROX project context.

- **Trigger:** Installing the npm package triggers its postinstall script.

- **Impact:** The package gains automatic integration with the project’s coding agents. Source inspection did not establish a malicious action or credential theft.

- **Evidence paths:** scripts/postinstall.js, hooks/claude-prompt-submit.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-12T23:12:41.059Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The script writes hook and MCP entries into project configuration files; the Claude prompt hook fetches XOROX context and emits it as additional context.

- **Rationale:** The package performs automatic install-time setup of its own coding-agent integrations, creating a real agent extension lifecycle risk. The inspected behavior is consistent with package-owned XOROX integration, so warn rather than block.

- **Files touched:** .cursor/hooks.json, .cursor/mcp.json, .claude/settings.json, .mcp.json

- **Network endpoints:** https://api.xorox.eu

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 88.0%

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

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for warning:** The install hook runs scripts/postinstall.js, which automatically installs Cursor and Claude Code hooks and MCP entries., The installer writes package-owned integrations into Cursor and Claude project configuration; the Claude prompt hook returns fetched XOROX context as additionalContext., The hook sends the XOROX project token to the configured XOROX API, whose default host is api.xorox.eu; the Claude installer retains unrelated hook groups.

- **Evidence against:** The registered commands point to this package’s own hook and MCP files, and the network request uses the XOROX project API., The Claude hook installer preserves unrelated hook groups. These facts support package-owned integration, but do not remove the install-time configuration change.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to @xorox-ai/agent@0.1.6.

- Review the evidence and your use of @xorox-ai/agent@0.1.6 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.
