## 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:** 1.0.417
- **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. Starting the agent automatically installs/updates and enables a Yeaft plugin in Claude's user-level plugin control surface. Startup also downloads verified third-party CLI binaries when absent.

## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** Starting the agent automatically installs/updates and enables a Yeaft plugin in Claude's user-level plugin control surface. Startup also downloads verified third-party CLI binaries when absent.

- **Trigger:** User starts/imports the agent entrypoint.

- **Impact:** Changes Claude plugin configuration and executes downloaded tools without a separate setup command.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, index.js, yeaft/managed-cli.js, service/linux.js, service/macos.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-08-09T06:45:57.174Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** runtime plugin registration and managed binary bootstrap

- **Rationale:** The source establishes a concrete, vendor-scoped Claude extension lifecycle mutation during normal runtime. It does not establish malicious exfiltration, stealth, or unconsented install-hook behavior warranting a block.

- **Files touched:** index.js, yeaft/managed-cli.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/, https://github.com/sharkdp/fd/releases/download/v10.3.0/, https://github.com/bootandy/dust/releases/download/v1.2.4/

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 93.0%

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

- **Intent class:** Unknown

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for:** index.js auto-runs ensureYeaftSkills() on agent startup., index.js clones/pulls github.com/yeaft/yeaft-skills into ~/.claude/plugins., index.js writes Claude marketplace, installed-plugin, and enabledPlugins settings., yeaft/managed-cli.js auto-downloads and executes pinned CLI binaries at startup.

- **Evidence against:** package.json contains no npm lifecycle hooks., Claude mutation is runtime-only and targets the vendor's named yeaft-skills plugin., Managed CLI archive downloads have pinned SHA-256 checks and version validation., No credential harvesting or unrelated exfiltration was found in inspected paths.
