Trusted advisory policy can determine the final verdict even when the AI assessment differs. ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** No confirmed attack was identified in the inspected source. Installation replaces two specific nested dependencies; runtime helpers support dashboard sessions. - **Trigger:** npm installation activates the dependency patcher; dashboard operation activates session helpers. - **Impact:** Observed effects concern dependency replacement and dashboard session operation; malicious impact was not established. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-02T23:52:06.641Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The patcher installs fixed dependency versions with scripts disabled, while runtime helpers manage PTY permissions and configured Pi subprocesses. - **Rationale:** Inspected behavior does not independently justify warning or blocking. Manual review is required because a clean decision requires nine distinct citation paths while the output permits at most eight citations. ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Manual Review - **Confidence:** 96.0% - **Recommended action:** manual\_review - **Intent class:** Unknown - **False-positive risk:** High - **AI review observations:** The postinstall hook runs scripts/patch-vulns.mjs., The installer targets fixed versions of brace-expansion and protobufjs and installs them with dependency scripts disabled., The PTY helper grants execute permission to the resolved node-pty helper., The title runner invokes the configured Pi command to generate a session title., Both release scripts activate their command handlers only when executed directly. - **Evidence against:** Inspected source did not establish credential exfiltration, remote payload execution, or broad agent configuration mutation., Scanner similarity labels do not independently demonstrate malicious behavior. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @zhuxixi/pi-agent-board@0.10.1. - Review the evidence and your use of @zhuxixi/pi-agent-board@0.10.1 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.
