Installation starts a detached loopback web server and, in a checkout, writes a Prettier-only Git hook. Runtime Claude quick-start can add package-owned hooks/skills to the chosen workspace. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 87.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-16T21:15:20.977Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-16T21:17:50.287Z - **Download time:** 1008 ms - **Static scan time:** 8498 ms - **AI review time:** 139800 ms - **Total time:** 149310 ms ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** Installation starts a detached loopback web server and, in a checkout, writes a Prettier-only Git hook. Runtime Claude quick-start can add package-owned hooks/skills to the chosen workspace. - **Trigger:** npm postinstall; later user-initiated Claude quick-start - **Impact:** Local process persistence and selected-workspace AI-agent configuration changes; no exfiltration or broad control-surface write confirmed. - **Evidence paths:** scripts/postinstall.js, dist/web/routes/session-routes.js, dist/hooks-config.js, dist/web/self-update.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-16T21:17:50.287Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** local server startup and scoped workspace hook/skill setup - **Rationale:** Warn for lifecycle-driven local persistence and scoped AI-agent workspace mutation. Source inspection found no credential theft, exfiltration, stealth payload execution, or install-time foreign/broad AI-agent hijack. - **Files touched:** scripts/postinstall.js, dist/index.js, .git/hooks/pre-commit, \/.claude/settings.local.json ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 87.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** postinstall starts a detached web server unless opted out., Claude quick-start can add Codeman hooks to a selected workspace., postinstall installs a formatting pre-commit hook only in this checkout. - **Evidence against:** No install-time write to a broad or foreign AI-agent configuration was found., Default server is documented as loopback-only., Self-update is limited to git installs and an explicit update action. ## Public findings ### 1.
