## 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:** 1.0.413
- **Selected version is latest:** No
- **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai)

LPM treats this as warn-only first-party agent extension lifecycle risk. On normal agent startup, the package automatically installs, updates, registers, and enables a Yeaft plugin in Claude's user-level plugin control surface. This is runtime behavior, not npm install-time behavior.

## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** On normal agent startup, the package automatically installs, updates, registers, and enables a Yeaft plugin in Claude's user-level plugin control surface. This is runtime behavior, not npm install-time behavior.

- **Trigger:** Run the index.js agent entrypoint without YEAFT\_SKIP\_STARTUP\_INSTALLS=true.

- **Impact:** A remote Git repository is made an enabled Claude plugin and refreshed on later agent starts.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, index.js, service/index.js, service/linux.js, service/macos.js, service/windows.js, connection/index.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-08-08T15:48:52.791Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** Unattended Git plugin sync and Claude plugin-registry mutation.

- **Rationale:** The package presents a real, automatic Claude plugin lifecycle risk, including unpinned remote updates, but inspection found no npm install hook or concrete malicious/exfiltration chain. Its service persistence is explicit user-command functionality.

- **Files touched:** ~/.claude/plugins/marketplaces/yeaft-skills-dev, ~/.claude/plugins/known\_marketplaces.json, ~/.claude/plugins/installed\_plugins.json, ~/.claude/plugins/cache/yeaft-skills-dev/yeaft-skills/0.1.0, ~/.claude/settings.json

- **Network endpoints:** https://github.com/yeaft/yeaft-skills.git

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 93.0%

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

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for:** index.js: runtime startup calls ensureYeaftSkills unless YEAFT\_SKIP\_STARTUP\_INSTALLS=true., index.js: automatically git-clones/pulls yeaft/yeaft-skills and copies it into ~/.claude/plugins., index.js: writes Claude known\_marketplaces.json, installed\_plugins.json, and settings.json to enable the plugin., index.js: also runs npm install when its node\_modules directory is absent.

- **Evidence against:** package.json has no preinstall, install, or postinstall lifecycle hook., Service persistence is only reached through explicit yeaft-agent install commands., WebSocket authentication sends the configured agent secret only to the configured SERVER\_URL., No source evidence of broad credential harvesting, destructive actions, or hidden exfiltration.
