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. Not malicious by source evidence: no automatic install trigger, credential theft, or exfiltration was confirmed. Warn because the explicit installer configures high-privilege agent control surfaces and hooks. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 90.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-21T18:12:11.843Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-21T18:14:39.619Z - **Download time:** 1260 ms - **Static scan time:** 600 ms - **AI review time:** 145915 ms - **Total time:** 147776 ms 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:** Explicit \`zaip init\` installs project agent configuration and, unless \`--project-only\` is used, modifies the user's Codex config. No install-time execution or exfiltration was confirmed. - **Trigger:** User runs \`zaip init\` without \`--project-only\`. - **Impact:** Can alter Codex agent permissions and hook behavior for the initialized project; global Codex configuration receives a hook entry. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, dist/commands/init.js, dist/services/install-agents-template.js, dist/services/adapters.js, dist/services/global-codex-config.js, templates/.agents/design/packages/windows-launcher/Program.cs - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-21T18:14:39.619Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Installs agent templates, privileged Codex settings, and command hooks. - **Rationale:** Not malicious by source evidence: no automatic install trigger, credential theft, or exfiltration was confirmed. Warn because the explicit installer configures high-privilege agent control surfaces and hooks. - **Files touched:** .agents/\*\*, .codex/config.toml, .codex/hooks/zaip-pre-tool-use.mjs, .codex/hooks/zaip-subagent-lifecycle.mjs - **Network endpoints:** https://developers.openai.com/mcp ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 90.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for warning:** \`zaip init\` writes templates and then reconciles global Codex configuration by default., Generated project Codex config grants a default profile \`:root\` write access and unrestricted network., The generated config installs PreToolUse and Subagent lifecycle command hooks., Bundled Windows executables are template launchers; source shows the design launcher starts a workspace-local Node script. - **Evidence against:** No preinstall, install, or postinstall lifecycle hook is declared., CLI execution requires an explicit \`zaip init\` command., Template files are hash-verified before installation., No credential harvesting or package-initiated exfiltration was confirmed. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @zaip-ai/cli@1.0.8. - Review the evidence and your use of @zaip-ai/cli@1.0.8 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. ## Public findings ### 1.
