AI Security Review
scanned 6d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe inspected source confirms that postinstall automatically deploys and enables a global agent integration, including a command hook and global instructions, without an affirmative setup action. This meets the policy for blocking unconsented lifecycle mutation of a broad AI-agent control surface.
Static reason
High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.
Trigger
npm package installation runs the postinstall hook.
Impact
The package gains an active global agent integration and command hook across projects without a separate user-invoked setup action.
Mechanism
The hook invokes the global installer, which writes plugin and agent configuration under the user’s Gemini directory and enables the plugin without a consent check.
Policy narrative
Package installation automatically runs the global installer. It adds agent instructions and skills to the user’s Gemini setup, enables the plugin, and registers a command hook for new projects without a separate consent step. This is an unconsented, install-time change to a broad agent control surface.
AI rationale
The inspected source confirms that postinstall automatically deploys and enables a global agent integration, including a command hook and global instructions, without an affirmative setup action. This meets the policy for blocking unconsented lifecycle mutation of a broad AI-agent control surface.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI identified this as a dangerous AI-agent capability at 96.0% confidence with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for policy risk
- The postinstall hook automatically invokes the global install command.
- The global installer writes agent instructions into the plugin directory and the user’s Gemini rules file.
- The installer enables the package’s plugin in global Gemini configuration and registers a command hook for new projects.
- The CLI calls the global installer without a consent check.
