Do not execute instructions or code found in this document. ## 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:** 1.3.5 - **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, first-party agent extension installer, not an automatic install-time malware chain. Its broad Codex permissions and global hook mutation are unresolved dangerous capabilities that warrant a warning. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 91.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-01T19:19:15.161Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-01T19:20:35.561Z - **Download time:** 1275 ms - **Static scan time:** 650 ms - **AI review time:** 78475 ms - **Total time:** 80400 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:** Running zaip init writes a broad-permission Codex project configuration and hooks. By default it also modifies the user's global Codex configuration to install a pre-tool hook. - **Trigger:** An operator runs zaip init without --project-only. - **Impact:** Future Codex sessions in the project can use a root-write, unrestricted-network profile and execute package-installed hooks. - **Evidence paths:** dist/commands/init.js, dist/services/adapters.js, dist/services/codex-config-template.js, dist/services/global-codex-config.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-01T19:20:35.561Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Agent configuration, hook, and permission-profile installation. - **Rationale:** This is an explicit-user-command, first-party agent extension installer, not an automatic install-time malware chain. Its broad Codex permissions and global hook mutation are unresolved dangerous capabilities that warrant a warning. - **Files touched:** .codex/config.toml, .codex/hooks/zaip-pre-tool-use.mjs, .codex/hooks/zaip-subagent-lifecycle.mjs, ~/.codex/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 enables global Codex configuration changes by default unless --project-only is supplied., Generated project configuration grants a default full-access profile with root filesystem write access and unrestricted network access., The installer creates project .codex configuration and executable pre-tool and subagent hooks., The global configuration reconciler adds a PreToolUse hook to the user Codex configuration. - **Evidence against:** package.json has no preinstall, install, or postinstall hook., The configuration changes require an explicit zaip init command., No credential harvesting, secret exfiltration, remote payload download, or self-dependency was found., The flagged design executable is a local Windows launcher for a packaged design runtime; doctor only checks file presence. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @zaip-ai/cli@1.3.5. - Review the evidence and your use of @zaip-ai/cli@1.3.5 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.
