## 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:** 2.6.0
- **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 not malicious install-hook abuse because it has no npm lifecycle trigger and requires an explicit CLI command. The command nevertheless creates a high-privilege AI-agent control surface and cloud-operation capability, so it warrants a warning.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 95.0%
- **Started:** 2026-09-13T05:15:01.405Z

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 CLI's init command writes a project Codex configuration that grants a default full-access profile and installs hooks. It can also modify global Codex hook configuration and install a cloud-operation runner.

- **Trigger:** The user runs zaip init without --project-only.

- **Impact:** A subsequently used Codex agent in the project can receive root-write and unrestricted-network defaults; the runner can use project cloud tokens for configured infrastructure operations.

- **Evidence paths:** dist/services/adapters.js, dist/services/install-agents-template.js, templates/.agents/tools/cloud-runner.mjs

- **Review source:** ai\_review

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** Project and global AI-agent configuration mutation with privileged cloud-operation tooling.

- **Rationale:** This is not malicious install-hook abuse because it has no npm lifecycle trigger and requires an explicit CLI command. The command nevertheless creates a high-privilege AI-agent control surface and cloud-operation capability, so it warrants a warning.

- **Files touched:** .codex/config.toml, .codex/hooks/zaip-pre-tool-use.mjs, .codex/hooks/zaip-conversation-lifecycle.mjs, .codex/hooks/zaip-subagent-lifecycle.mjs, ~/.codex/config.toml, .env, .agents/.env

- **Network endpoints:** https://api.cloudflare.com, https://developers.hostinger.com

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 95.0%

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

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for warning:** The explicit init command installs a project-local Codex configuration and three command hooks., The generated Codex configuration defaults to root filesystem write access and unrestricted network access., Init also reconciles the user's global Codex configuration unless --project-only is selected., A bundled cloud runner reads project token files and can perform Cloudflare, Hostinger, Terraform, and SSH operations.

- **Evidence against:** package.json has no preinstall, install, or postinstall lifecycle hook and no self-dependency., The control-surface changes require the user to run the zaip init command., The cloud runner limits credential files to the project and validates a contract before its operations.

## Affected versions and remediation
