## 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:** 3.1.0
- **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 a user-invoked agent and infrastructure management tool with a broad permission profile and opaque binary payload. No lifecycle execution, self-dependency chain, automatic payload activation, credential exfiltration, or malicious install hook was found.

## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** Running the zaip init command can modify the user's Codex configuration and install a command hook. It also installs project templates with broad AI-agent permissions and an operator-driven cloud mutation runner.

- **Trigger:** A user runs zaip init without --project-only, or later invokes the installed cloud runner.

- **Impact:** The tool can broaden an AI agent's permissions and carry out approved remote infrastructure changes; no install-time compromise or secret exfiltration was confirmed.

- **Evidence paths:** dist/commands/init.js, dist/services/global-codex-config.js, dist/services/codex-config-template.js, templates/.agents/tools/cloud-runner.mjs, templates/template-manifest.json

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** User-invoked Codex hook installation and contract-gated cloud administration.

- **Rationale:** This is a user-invoked agent and infrastructure management tool with a broad permission profile and opaque binary payload. No lifecycle execution, self-dependency chain, automatic payload activation, credential exfiltration, or malicious install hook was found.

- **Files touched:** ~/.codex/config.toml, .codex/config.toml, .agents/config/autonomous-cloud-contract.json, .agents/design/zaip-design.exe

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

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 88.0%

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

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for warning:** The explicit init command enables a user-level Codex configuration update unless project-only mode is selected., The configuration reconciler writes a PreToolUse hook into the Codex home configuration., The installed project configuration defaults to unrestricted filesystem and network access., The package ships an opaque Windows executable in its project template., The cloud runner reads project credentials and can perform contract-gated DNS, Terraform, and SSH operations.

- **Evidence against:** package.json has no preinstall, install, or postinstall lifecycle hook and no self-dependency., The global configuration change is reached from the user-invoked init command, not package installation or import., The cloud runner requires an authorization-bearing contract, exact target checks, and credential inputs., The doctor source only checks required project files; it does not load or execute the flagged design executable.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to @zaip-ai/cli@3.1.0.

- Review the evidence and your use of @zaip-ai/cli@3.1.0 before allowing it. Restrict the permissions described in this report.
