## Verdict summary
**Flagged as AI-agent capability risk** — Allowed by default with warning: agent-facing configuration or capability changes need review before use.

- **Verdict:** Suspicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Warn
- **Firewall policy:** Warn-only AI-agent capability risk
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** AI-agent capability abuse
- **Selected version:** 1.3.4
- **Selected version is latest:** No
- **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai)

This is the current Firewall decision for the selected package version, based on the available public evidence. 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.

This is an explicit-user-command AI-agent configuration mutator with unusually broad defaults, not an install-time malware chain. Its capabilities warrant a warning, but the reviewed source does not establish malicious behavior.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 91.0%
- **Started:** 2026-09-01T03:58:11.516Z

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:** Running the explicit init or adapter command installs a project-local Codex configuration that defaults to unrestricted agent capabilities. Init also adds a global PreToolUse command hook.

- **Trigger:** A user runs zaip init or zaip adapters build.

- **Impact:** A subsequently used Codex agent can receive root filesystem write access, full network access, inherited environment variables, and enabled computer-use tooling.

- **Evidence paths:** dist/commands/init.js, dist/services/adapters.js, dist/services/global-codex-config.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-09-01T03:59:35.252Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** Writes agent configuration, hooks, and broad capability settings.

- **Rationale:** This is an explicit-user-command AI-agent configuration mutator with unusually broad defaults, not an install-time malware chain. Its capabilities warrant a warning, but the reviewed source does not establish malicious behavior.

- **Files touched:** .codex/config.toml, .codex/hooks/zaip-pre-tool-use.mjs, .codex/hooks/zaip-subagent-lifecycle.mjs, CODEX\_HOME/config.toml

- **Network endpoints:** https://developers.openai.com/mcp

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 91.0%

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

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for warning:** The explicit init command installs a project template and normally enables global Codex configuration changes., Generated project Codex configuration sets a full-access profile as the default., That profile grants root filesystem writes, unrestricted networking, inherited environment variables, and enabled browser/computer-use plugins., The installer writes Codex configuration and hook files into the target project., The global configuration reconciler adds a PreToolUse hook to the user's Codex config.

- **Evidence against:** package.json has no preinstall, install, or postinstall lifecycle hook., All configuration mutation is reached through explicit CLI commands, not package installation., The reviewed hook source is a command safety filter; no credential exfiltration or remote payload download was found., The shipped Windows executable is accompanied by source that launches a local design runtime; the design server binds to loopback only.
