## Verdict summary
**Flagged — allowed with a warning** — Allowed by default policy, but 16 finding(s) warrant review before installing.

- **Verdict:** Suspicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Warn
- **Firewall policy:** Matched warn-list
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Credential Exfiltration
- **Selected version:** 1.1.76
- **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 automatic hook is a Node-version gate, but the CLI contains an unjustified package-external secret lookup and remote credential-forwarding capability. The behavior is user-triggered and lacks a proven attacker endpoint, so warning is more proportionate than blocking.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 86.0%
- **Started:** 2026-09-15T09:56:22.602Z
- **Finished:** 2026-09-15T09:58:56.486Z

- **Static scan time:** 5472 ms
- **AI review time:** 147903 ms
- **Total time:** 153884 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:** A user-invoked CLI flow can read a Gemini key from a package-external execution-engine .env file. Interactive agent credentials can then be passed to a remote session handler.

- **Trigger:** Running the CLI's embedded agent flow without a configured key or authenticated managed-key source.

- **Impact:** A key stored outside the package may be used without the owner explicitly supplying it to this CLI; prompted credentials may leave the local process.

- **Evidence paths:** dist/cli.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-09-15T09:58:56.486Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** External .env key harvesting and remote agent credential forwarding.

- **Rationale:** The automatic hook is a Node-version gate, but the CLI contains an unjustified package-external secret lookup and remote credential-forwarding capability. The behavior is user-triggered and lacks a proven attacker endpoint, so warning is more proportionate than blocking.

- **Files touched:** ../../../execution-engine/.env, ../../execution-engine/.env

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 86.0%

- **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for warning:** The package has an automatic preinstall hook., The CLI searches outside its package directory for an execution-engine .env file and extracts GEMINI\_API\_KEY., During an interactive agent session, entered credentials are sent to the remote session handler.

- **Evidence against:** The preinstall script only rejects unsupported Node versions and does not modify files or make network requests., The external key lookup is reached only during a user-invoked CLI flow when normal authentication and environment-key options are unavailable., No self-dependency, install-time payload download, or foreign AI-agent control-surface mutation was found.

## Affected versions and remediation
