## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 32 low-signal pattern(s) reviewed.

- **Verdict:** Manual Review
- **Product-default install policy:** Allow
- **Firewall policy:** No policy match
- **Public report status:** Under Review
- **Threat category:** Unknown
- **Selected version:** 0.7.36
- **Selected version is latest:** Yes
- **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: manual review; recommendation: manual review. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The inspected manifest and agent setup excerpts do not establish malicious behavior; the setup prompt gates the OpenClaw plugin installation. The shipped runtime archive remains materially unresolved because its offline inspection failed, so manual review is warranted.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Manual Review
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 84.0%
- **Started:** 2026-10-22T16:16:42.596Z

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 attack was identified in the inspected CLI setup behavior. A shipped runtime archive could not be fully inspected, leaving its behavior unresolved.

- **Trigger:** The archive's runtime trigger could not be determined from the available inspection.

- **Impact:** The unresolved archive prevents a confident package-wide verdict.

- **Evidence paths:** runtime/packages/agenticros/agenticros-agenticros-0.0.1.tgz, .lpm-inspection-sR8xhf/0-be34d918abd7.txt

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-22T16:17:45.800Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The offline archive analysis stopped at a TAR entry limit or missing terminator, so its contents and callers could not be resolved.

- **Rationale:** The inspected manifest and agent setup excerpts do not establish malicious behavior; the setup prompt gates the OpenClaw plugin installation. The shipped runtime archive remains materially unresolved because its offline inspection failed, so manual review is warranted.

- **Files touched:** runtime/packages/agenticros/agenticros-agenticros-0.0.1.tgz

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Manual Review

- **Confidence:** 84.0%

- **Recommended action:** manual\_review

- **Intent class:** Unknown

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **AI review observations:** package.json has no preinstall, install, or postinstall hook; its prepublishOnly script runs build and packaging checks., OpenClaw plugin installation is offered during the init command and proceeds only after a confirmation prompt., The required offline analysis for the shipped runtime archive reports that inspection failed because of a TAR entry limit or missing complete terminator.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to agenticros@0.7.36.

- Review the evidence and your use of agenticros@0.7.36 before allowing it. Restrict the permissions described in this report.
