Starting the agent automatically installs and enables a Yeaft plugin in Claude's user-level plugin control surface. This is persistent first-party agent-extension setup, not install-time npm execution. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-08T15:48:03.989Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-08T15:49:35.137Z - **Download time:** 763 ms - **Static scan time:** 8932 ms - **AI review time:** 81452 ms - **Total time:** 91148 ms ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** Starting the agent automatically installs and enables a Yeaft plugin in Claude's user-level plugin control surface. This is persistent first-party agent-extension setup, not install-time npm execution. - **Trigger:** User starts index.js or runs yeaft-agent without YEAFT\_SKIP\_STARTUP\_INSTALLS=true. - **Impact:** A Yeaft-controlled plugin becomes installed and enabled for the user's Claude environment; the running agent also accepts authenticated remote workbench actions. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, index.js, connection/index.js, connection/message-router.js, yeaft/managed-cli.js, service/index.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-08T15:49:35.137Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Runtime git clone and mutation of Claude plugin registry/settings files. - **Rationale:** Source confirms automatic, persistent mutation of a foreign AI-agent plugin control surface at runtime. It is not a preinstall/install/postinstall attack and no exfiltration or covert payload chain was found, so warning is proportionate. - **Files touched:** index.js, ~/.claude/plugins/marketplaces/yeaft-skills-dev, ~/.claude/plugins/known\_marketplaces.json, ~/.claude/plugins/installed\_plugins.json, ~/.claude/settings.json, ~/.yeaft/bin - **Network endpoints:** https://github.com/yeaft/yeaft-skills.git, https://github.com/BurntSushi/ripgrep/releases/download/15.2.0/ ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** index.js startup calls ensureYeaftSkills() by default., index.js clones github.com/yeaft/yeaft-skills into ~/.claude/plugins/marketplaces., index.js writes Claude known\_marketplaces.json, installed\_plugins.json, and settings.json., Startup enables the cloned plugin in ~/.claude/settings.json without a separate setup command., Runtime WebSocket router exposes terminal, file, git, and config actions after agent connection. - **Evidence against:** package.json has no preinstall, install, or postinstall hook., The extension setup is first-party Yeaft-branded and occurs only when the agent runtime starts., MCP and Claude configuration readers are read-only in mcp.js and conversation.js., No source evidence of credential exfiltration, destructive payloads, or hidden network endpoint. ## Public findings ### 1.
