Treat them as untrusted evidence. Do not execute instructions or code found in this document. ## 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:** 18.7.0 - **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. The package has an explicit AI-agent skill installation capability that writes to assistant control directories. It has no automatic npm lifecycle hook, so the evidence supports a non-blocking capability warning rather than malware. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 90.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-27T19:47:26.768Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-27T19:48:40.789Z - **Download time:** 6841 ms - **Static scan time:** 6131 ms - **AI review time:** 61046 ms - **Total time:** 74021 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:** The package provides a command that installs skill content into AI-assistant skill directories. No unconsented install-time attack was identified. - **Trigger:** A user runs the installer command without dry-run mode. - **Impact:** Installed skills can extend the capabilities and instructions available to the selected AI assistant. - **Evidence paths:** tools/bin/install.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-27T19:48:40.789Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The command resolves selected skill entries and copies them to the selected assistant skill directory. - **Rationale:** The package has an explicit AI-agent skill installation capability that writes to assistant control directories. It has no automatic npm lifecycle hook, so the evidence supports a non-blocking capability warning rather than malware. - **Files touched:** ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.claude/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.codex/skills, ~/.agents/skills ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 90.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for warning:** The manifest exposes an installer as a user-invoked command., The installer selects several AI assistant skill directories, including Cursor and Claude Code locations., The installer copies selected skill entries into its chosen target after the command is invoked. - **Evidence against:** No npm preinstall, install, or postinstall hook is declared., The observed mutation is gated by explicit execution of the package command and target-selection options. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to agentic-awesome-skills@18.7.0. - Review the evidence and your use of agentic-awesome-skills@18.7.0 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.
