## 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:** 1.0.450
- **Selected version is latest:** Yes
- **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai)

LPM treats this as warn-only first-party agent extension lifecycle risk. Normal agent startup clones/updates a remote Yeaft skills repository and mutates Claude CLI's user plugin registry and enabled-plugin settings. This creates a user-level AI-agent extension lifecycle risk, but not an npm install-time attack.

## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** Normal agent startup clones/updates a remote Yeaft skills repository and mutates Claude CLI's user plugin registry and enabled-plugin settings. This creates a user-level AI-agent extension lifecycle risk, but not an npm install-time attack.

- **Trigger:** Running the package's normal agent entrypoint without YEAFT\_SKIP\_STARTUP\_INSTALLS=true.

- **Impact:** Remote repository content can become enabled in the user's Claude CLI plugin environment.

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

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-08-22T05:48:29.058Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** automatic remote Claude CLI plugin installation and enablement

- **Rationale:** Source establishes automatic remote plugin installation and Claude user-settings mutation at runtime. Because there is no preinstall/install/postinstall hook or confirmed exfiltration/destructive behavior, policy calls for warning rather than blocking.

- **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:** 94.0%

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

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for:** Runtime startup automatically installs a Yeaft skills plugin into Claude CLI's user directory., It clones and periodically fast-forwards a remote GitHub repository., It registers the plugin as user-scoped and enables it in Claude settings., The behavior runs on normal agent startup unless an opt-out environment variable is set.

- **Evidence against:** package.json has no preinstall, install, or postinstall hook., The service persistence code is reachable only through explicit CLI service-install commands., No source evidence of credential exfiltration or destructive behavior was found.
