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 behavior because the package has no automatic npm installation hook and the change is reached through \`zaip init\`. It warrants a warning because the default explicit command modifies global Codex configuration and installs agent hooks. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 91.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-22T03:18:06.662Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-22T03:27:22.291Z - **Download time:** 1515 ms - **Static scan time:** 994 ms - **AI review time:** 553118 ms - **Total time:** 555629 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:** No automatic install-time attack was identified. The explicit \`zaip init\` command can modify a project's Codex files and, by default, the user's global Codex configuration. - **Trigger:** A user runs \`zaip init\` without \`--project-only\`. - **Impact:** This is an explicit-user-command change to an AI-agent control surface; it can affect later Codex tool-hook behavior, but no covert execution or data theft was confirmed. - **Evidence paths:** dist/commands/init.js, dist/services/global-codex-config.js, dist/services/adapters.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-22T03:27:22.291Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The initializer calls the global Codex configuration reconciler and writes managed Codex configuration and hook files. - **Rationale:** This is not malicious install-hook behavior because the package has no automatic npm installation hook and the change is reached through \`zaip init\`. It warrants a warning because the default explicit command modifies global Codex configuration and installs agent hooks. - **Files touched:** .codex/config.toml, .codex/hooks/zaip-pre-tool-use.mjs ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for warning:** The package exposes an explicit \`zaip init\` command rather than an npm install lifecycle hook., Running \`init\` enables global Codex configuration unless the user selects \`--project-only\`., The global configuration routine targets the user's Codex config file and installs a command safety hook., The project template writes Codex configuration and hook files into the selected repository. - **Evidence against:** No package lifecycle install, preinstall, or postinstall hook was found in package metadata., The global mutation is reached through the user-invoked \`init\` command, and \`--project-only\` avoids it., No credential collection, exfiltration sink, or covert remote payload execution was identified in the inspected path. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @zaip-ai/cli@3.6.0. - Review the evidence and your use of @zaip-ai/cli@3.6.0 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.
